"Going through the program and all of the modules, and also discussing things because you become part of the community while you're in the program, it makes you feel a bit better and a bit more hopeful. That hope gives you enough motivation to go through the program and then increase your chances."
Matthias's Story
Matthias, 30, from a country where e-commerce is still developing, knew that remote work was his only option to find a role where he could truly grow his career. But after six months of sending out hundreds of CVs on LinkedIn without a single interview, he felt stuck. The task of capturing his diverse projects and accomplishments in a CV felt impossible, and he found himself in that frustrating middle ground of being technical, but not technical enough for the roles he was targeting.
With dwindling hope and serious doubts about investing money in a job search program when applying is "free," Matthias reached out to Michelle in 2023. He wasn't sure the program would work, but he took the leap anyway.
Remote Rebellion transformed his approach. Before even writing his CV, the program guided him through articulating his beliefs, learnings, and accomplishments. This process made it easy to capture a recruiter's attention in those critical five seconds of CV review. After spending just a couple of months in the program, the very first CV Matthias sent out landed him an interview and then the job. It became the most important role of his career, opening doors to other opportunities he hadn't imagined.
Today, Matthias has the freedom to travel and work from anywhere. When his girlfriend moves to the UK for a year, he can simply pack his laptop and go. The salary increase from landing a job in a more developed country gave him a 5 to 7x return on investment in the first year alone. But beyond the financial gains, he now finds remote jobs easily and gets called for interviews regularly.
Matthias says the program wasn't just a career change, it was a life change. For anyone hesitant about the investment, he's clear: the knowledge gained is invaluable and will pay dividends throughout your entire working life.
