Hiring managers are busy! Sometimes you won't hear back from them. So, it's always a great practice to follow up after waiting a reasonable amount of time (general standard two weeks). And, remember, kindness always wins.
We are a remote-dedicated job board. That being said, not all jobs are fully remote in nature. Meaning, many companies have hiring restrictions that only allow them to hire in certain countries or time zones. If you see a job listing that's tied to a city or requires you to be in the office a few times a week, click on the 'Let us know!' button on the job posting to notify us.
We take these very seriously! Click on the 'Let us know!' button on the job posting or send an email to support@remoteafrica.io with the link to the job posting.
