Remote flexibility

- Source listing states candidate location: "São Paulo, SP, Brazil, São Paulo, SP, br, Remote"

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.
- No pay is stated. Ask for the salary range before investing time in interviews.
- The advert does not say whether this is employment or a contractor arrangement. Ask, as it affects tax and benefits.
