There are remote-friendly companies which hire people from your timezone and absolutely don't care which country do you live in or what your credentials are (as long as your country is not under some kind of embargo etc.). I'm in similar timezone (in Poland) and got jobs in many such companies. Are you not able to find them, or do you find them but they reject you?

I'm curious where you find them? One frustration is that only 2 job search sites (angel list and weworkremotely) have any featured to list "will hire from anywhere". Remote generally means "from our country".

Are you working with countries also from the EU or American companies?

I'm actually starting to wonder if I'm rejected / ignored because I'm old (43), and have been working almost 30 years. My last interview began with "Wow, I have to admit, your resume is intimidating".

I had a friend there who told me they rejected me because I was more senior than anyone in the company and the Director I'd be responding to was insecure about that.

I've been thinking about lying and saying I only have 10 years experience.

this.
