That’s a new way to fight against Russian tanks and troops

We’ll definitely add more jobs in Asia. Thanks

Good point! Thanks for sharing

You've already described the main roadblocks. I suppose that those industries have less in-demand vacancies comparing to software engineering, as well as companies are not offering so many positions with relocation support.

We'll think about it, many thanks!

Thanks for the feedback! In your opinion, what would be a realistic figure for the Bay Area?

I started a recruitment agency first... After a while, I realized that it was almost impossible to scale this business as well as to be somehow unique comparing to other recruiting firms. It took me around 3 years to negotiate buying the Relocate.me domain name and then the Relocate.me story started.

It helped a lot that I was in this field for almost 5 years before launching Relocate.me. So the first users came through the word of mouth and a Product Hunt campaign.

Moreover, we 'manually' invited software engineers to the platform, those who somehow expressed their interest in moving abroad (haha, this can help - https://relocateme.eu/blog/how-to-source-for-software-develo...)

Thanks a lot for the feedback on the US salary calculator! Makes sense... Added this to the backlog

We won't. Handpicking jobs with relocation assistance takes quite a lot of time, but will do our best to expand the list of available job offering as much and fast as possible

I think that quick research about the company can give a rough idea about the salary they offer.

In most cases, it's possible to find feedback from past employees on Glassdoor.

Thanks for the warm words. It’s funny, but we did a poll yesterday about the most desired work abroad destination among 589 developers (exclude my vote - it was Japan). You can find the results - https://www.dropbox.com/s/ga2y72eqwcd9bp6/Relocate.me%20Marc...

Good point. Actually we thought about adding this info to vacancy pages. However, as our experience shows, many companies are not ready to disclose salary info to the public.

Hello, everyone! It’s Andrew, founder of Relocate.me.

In a nutshell, Relocate.me is a one-stop platform for tech professionals who are willing to relocate for work.

Since launching Relocate.me on Hacker News over 3 years ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15922401), a lot has changed, and I’m excited to finally introduce Relocate.me 3.0 with a batch of new features and enhancements:

1) Learning center (https://relocate.me/learning-center): A treasure trove of useful information and practical advice on finding employment abroad.

2) Companies (https://relocate.me/companies): A handpicked list of tech companies hiring internationally; you can filter companies by country.

3) Improved search (https://relocate.me/search)

4) Calculators (https://relocate.me/net-pay-calculators) to estimate your after-taxes paycheck in 20+ countries

5) “Who Wants to be Relocated?” initiative (https://relocate.me/wwbr): A public list of potential tech hires promoted among international recruiters.

6) Non-developer jobs with relocation assistance. Including (but not limited to) Product Manager, Design, and Marketing roles.

7) Telegram channel (https://t.me/relocateme): A quick way to keep up to date with new positions as they’re posted, relevant news, and more.

Thank you so much for reading this far! Our team will be happy to hear your feedback.

Thanks for the feedback!

Leading and managing the team

Fixed, thanks

I think so. Recruiters might be overwhelmed with resumes and read between the lines. So the first impression often matters with resumes

Good point! This could be an option, but a bit later

Great suggestions! Thanks

This is pretty similar to the 'Who wants to be hired' list on HN, but with a focus on finding a job abroad.

Moreover, we're promoting this list to tech companies from over 30 countries.

Hi there! Andrew here, the founder of Relocate.me (https://relocate.me), a tech job relocation platform.

As we're working with relocating techies every day, we observe a discouraging trend.

Around 80% of tech job candidates applying from abroad are being rejected on the resume screening phase.

Driven by a desire to change this, our Relocate.me team has launched the new 'Who Wants to Be Relocated?’ page.

The aim is to give the relocating tech specialists more chances and better exposure.

Every month, we'll update it with a fresh batch of new applicants.

Fixed. The website is working now

CVCompiler.com

Loved the idea

following the thread to learn the names of the popular fonts :)

what are the criteria for aggregating your models?

What's about the relation to integration and how welcome the country may be to foreigners?

Cool tool, thanks. Can you provide the same for the section 'Who wants to be hired? It might be interesting for recruiters

Just checked out the website and seems like a good option to search relocation.

However, would be cool to add more jobs in Asia. I think this is more than popular destination now.

Recruiting process is so connected to applicant tracking systems, so applying via external services vs directly to career pages won't provide you benefits.

Do you plan to integrate with ATS?
