  • Source listing states candidate location: "California, USA, Remote; Illinois, USA, Remote; Massachusetts, USA, Remote; New York, USA, Remote, Remote - California, Remote - Illinois, Remote - Massachusetts, Remote - New York"

What Nomaders makes of it

  • Residency required in United States

Before you apply

Questions worth asking: Nomaders interpretation

  • The advert does not say where you can be based. Ask which countries they can legally employ or contract you from.
  • The advert does not say whether this is employment or a contractor arrangement. Ask, as it affects tax and benefits.
