When Croatia got eliminated, the entire Croatia team came to Modric.

How to actually land a remote job in 30 days.
I've made 320+ hires.
Most candidates apply on job boards and wait.
Here's what actually moves the needle.
Step 1.
Pull companies hiring across these boards
- Wellfound
- Remote OK
- We Work Remotely
- FlexJobs
- Jobgether
- Remotive
- Working Nomads
- Jobspresso
- JustRemote
- Underdog
- Built In
- Remote co
- Skip The Drive
- Virtual Vocations
Step 2.
Verify the posting is genuine before you spend time on it. Check multiple signals.
Same role posted on the company's own careers page
Same role posted on LinkedIn
Same role also live on Wellfound
Company page on LinkedIn shows recent hiring activity, not just one stray post
Job description matches across platforms, not copy pasted from 6 months ago
More signals lining up, more real the role is.
Step 3.
Find the email of the CTO, engineering manager, or founder using Apollo.
Step 4.
Email 2 people directly. Keep it short, mention the specific role, attach your resume.
Step 5.
Follow up once after 4-5 days. Low key, just a bump, not a chase.
Step 6.
Do this for 10 companies a day, every day, for 30 days.
That's 300 companies you've reached out to directly. Not 300 applications sitting in some ATS queue.
I've seen people land offers doing exactly this while everyone else was still refreshing job boards and waiting for a response.
Happy to answer questions if you're stuck on any of this. Happy Job Hunting :)

I think there's a fundamental flaw in how we define success.
It's almost always tied to something we're chasing - a job title, a company, a salary, or a badge of achievement. Very rarely do we encourage people to simply get insanely good at the craft itself.
The people who achieve extraordinary things aren't just chasing outcomes. They're obsessed with improving the craft every single day.
I feel this shift in mindset is what we need. If we celebrated craftsmanship over credentials, we'd have more people like Shreyan Ray and probably a ICPC medals too.
Raven🐦⬛ is two days in and already close to 500 GitHub stars.
A strong start, real momentum, and an incredible community.
Thank you all.

Amazon Prime Video moved their video monitoring tool from microservices to a monolith in 2023. Costs dropped 90%.
The internet lost its mind. "Even Amazon is ditching microservices?"
