Remote - where is it easier to get to?

Question

JavaScript

I plan in a year (when I finish learning theory + I have minimal practice) to go to remote work (and as soon as I gain serious experience - to freelancing).
Where is it easier to get to? Personally, after analyzing all the sites with remote work, I realized only one thing - the front-end is in the lead, but the competition there is a little more frenzied than completely.
Actually such a question, who works in this way - please share your experience!

Answer 1

At a remote location, juniors are not needed, and the demand from the remote operator is double (the person is not visible, which means it doesn’t work by default, in the office a person pokes on the keyboard, which means it works by default) and it’s more difficult to gain experience remotely. Work first in the office under the supervision of an experienced person, and then decide for yourself where to go, and maybe you will like it in the office.
There is no competition in the frontend, there is a wild shortage of specialists. In terms of layout, yes, there is a lot of competition.

Answer 2

ad.ru until regular customers appear on the heels, I would not look much at competition, a big random and many factors. It happens that for one project there are 80 bodies, of which 70 work for food and dampers / and out of 10 there are already reviews, rating, budget, quality.
It's more annoying to filter projects by budget comparable to the cost of dinner in a cafe .. Good clients are like dinosaurs.
Everything is ok with English, go to odesk.
IMHO it is better to work with the code there "less housewives". As already said above "Professional JS-coders - count on fingers." Become a dinosaur. Good luck.

Answer 3

Professional JS encoders can be counted on fingers.
Next - think for yourself.
And about "getting": freelance.ru (everyone has heard of it)

Answer 4

From my own experience I can say that the choice of direction is important. And it is necessary to be guided not only by competition, but also by prospects. In some areas, even good specialists cannot sell themselves in Russian freelancing now, what can we say about beginners ?! I would advise you to delve deeply into yourself and determine what is closer to you, what is cool to do, where you see the prospects (look into the future for a year or two) and then decisively get down to business, even if at the moment it will not be very profitable.

Answer 5

upwork. Without a doubt. There's real money there.
Ours even manage to resell their orders on Russian freelancing for rubles, and three times cheaper. Business in Russian. but it's true, lyrics

Answer 6

I started working remotely as a layout designer, but I will say that it is difficult, even with a good attitude from the employer - there is really no one to ask, you can only learn on your own. I worked like that for three months and switched to a similar job in the office, and I will say that the difference is colossal in how much easier it is to learn and do your job better.
And I’ll say for sure that it’s much easier to get a job as a layout designer without experience than anyone else.
