Why Working for US Companies Feels Out of Reach
If you live outside the US and want to work remotely for an American company, you’ve probably wondered if it’s even possible. This guide shows you how to make it happen. Most people don’t fully understand what it means to be an international contractor — you likely haven’t heard the term before.
After years of trial and error working for US-based companies, I created this guide to make that path clear and achievable.

About the Creator
I’m Darren Cronian, and I’ve spent the last decade working remotely for US companies while living in a new country every 30-90 days.
When I started, I had no idea what “international contracting” even meant. It took years of trial and error to figure out how global hiring actually works. I wrote this guide to make that learning curve shorter for others, so you can skip the confusion and start building your remote career with confidence.
I’ve helped hundreds of people through my coaching and content at The Remote Hive, showing them how to find genuine remote roles, stand out to employers, and build a life of flexibility and freedom.
