How I got a ₹80 LPA Remote Job as a Software Developer WITHOUT Fiverr or Upwork

In this video, I share my story of how I landed my first $100k remote job as Software Developer after resigning from Goldman Sachs using Twitter, and not platforms like Fiverr or Upwork, and also talk about my experience working remotely - and most importantly, how you can do it too.

no u peoples also grown in team management. bcs its not easy for one person to plan which city they want to blasts. but i feel regret for u cause no one pays for that job even if u have experience.

You will not get hired since you are from Pakistan , Bangladesh , they look for the background , you will need to shift out of Pakistan

[@mrmack678]

@@PrashantParasher-kv5dc That's not true. Alot of my seniors have high paying US-based remote jobs while sitting in Pakistan. Infact, all of our freelance market is also made up of foreign clients. So yes, it doesn't really matter whether you are from Pakistan or India as long as you can get the work done. The primary consideration of hiring someone is always based on skills and experience.

[@microtech2448]

Yes, it was your luck that you got something A-frame by chance and twitter became just medium in this. Same message could flow on linkedin, other job portals too. So totally a luck in this case, but after getting it, retaining the same was your hard work and/or knowledge.
