Do you guys hire remotely from all over the world or only US/Canada? I've been following the careers page for a few months anxiously and have been totally afraid to apply. Few days ago I checked, you guys had updated the remote options to only US/Canada. Hopes totally dashed since then.

I had the same question a few months ago. Unfortunately working from Asia wasn't an option, but I'd still suggest reaching out since the Khan Academy folks are very helpful and encouraged me to interview if I was ever back in the US.

I find that a lot of times people post here with "Remote" jobs. Then I contact them and they say "we're not looking for anyone in your area". Doesn't remote imply that the location doesn't really matter? I'm even in the US.
