Comment on Ask HN: What prevents a company from hiring remote employees internationally?parentComments−half0wlOP3yThat's my ideal set-up (I was also set up as a contractor for 5-ish years).Was it difficult for you to convice companies to take you on as a "contractor" (legally speaking)?−askonomm3yNot at all! In fact it's always assumed that I'm a contractor given I apply from a different country. Could also have something to do with me doing Clojure, which is quite a niche, and I think most Clojurians are contractors.
