Questions

How do I confirm a US applicant is eligible?

Check the ad’s location text for “United States” or state lists; avoid assuming time zone equals eligibility.

Do boards always show hiring countries?

Some do. Remote1st shows the hiring regions on every listing; others vary.

Can I get alerts without paying?

Remote1st offers free weekly alerts. Other boards’ alerts vary by site.

What if a role says “Anywhere”?

Verify in the original ad. Some “Anywhere” roles still exclude certain countries for legal or payroll reasons.
