Land a Remote Job
From Pakistan 🇵🇰

No "believe in yourself" BS. No productivity hacks. Just the actual lessons from 1,237 real job rejections.

Join 400+ developers on the waitlist. No spam.

In my first two years hunting for remote work, I got rejected 1,200+ times, gave 300+ interviews to land my first job. RemoteKaro is everything I learned so you don't waste two years like I did.

Back in 2018, Facebook offered me a mobile engineering role and relocate to London. I turned it down as I didn't want to leave the country. But that didn't mean that I can only work for local companies. I realized that if you get a remote job with US market salaries and live in countries like Pakistan, India etc, it's going to change your life literally.

This was the moment when I started applying to remote jobs all over the world. I was so naive that I thought that I would get a remote job in a few weeks. But oh boy, was I wrong. It took me two years and 1200+ rejections to land my first remote job ever.

Today, I've been working remotely for 8+ years now. And along this journey, I've been helping other Pakistani developers land their dream remote jobs with RemoteKaro sessions and masterclasses. This book is a collection of all the insights and strategies I've gathered over the years improved over the years with those 1-on-1 and group sessions.

RemoteKaro outlines the complete system I wish I had from day one:

  • Turn rejections into data to understand what's actually broken in your application
  • Structure your resume to pass ATS and AI filters
  • Build your presence on platforms where remote companies actually hire
  • Navigate Pakistan-specific challenges (payments, taxes, infrastructure)
  • Master the interview process that's different from local jobs

By following the principles in this book, you will become a better candidate and learning from 1,237 failed applications will save you from making the same mistakes I did.

“It’s a simple “Winner Takes All” game. Either you are all in, or you are not. That’s it. Nobody told us getting remote jobs from Pakistan were this hard or possible either.

Wajahat's book RemoteKaro is a rare book for developers in Pakistan. Genuinely I love the tone of the book. Its very straight forward yet relatable at all times.”

“I’ve worked remotely for a few years now. The hardest part starting out wasn’t the technical stuff. It was communication, managing expectations across timezones, knowing how to present yourself.

Wajahat’s RemoteKaro book covers exactly that. Practical, no fluff. Worth reading. Highly recommended.”

“What Wajahat wrote is exactly why many people don’t understand why working in remote jobs is not as easy as it sounds. This book actually give a clear explanation of start to finish and I wish I would have read this when I started working remotely 5 years ago.

This book is giving away so many free tips and tricks that helped me to find and stay remote for so long and I had to figure it out at that time myself so I definitely recommend this to new nomads.”

06|FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Do I need prior US/UK remote experience to get a remote job?

No. The book shows you how to frame your local Pakistani experience or freelance projects into remote-ready portfolios. ATS systems look for impact and signal, not necessarily the geofence of your past employer.

Will this help if I am not a software developer?

The core principles of finding hidden remote roles, bypassing the ATS filter, and the 'referral-first' strategy apply to designers, PMs, and marketers. However, the examples, salary realities, and specific take-home task strategies are highly tailored for software engineers.

How do I deal with global taxes and getting paid in Pakistan?

There's an entire dedicated chapter outlining exact pipelines for receiving USD safely, legally declaring remote income, and protecting yourself against volatility.

What format will the book be in?

The book will be delivered digitally as an interactive PDF and EPUB so you can read it anywhere. If you purchase the Bundle, you'll also get instant access to the video masterclasses.
