Remote Ready : The Non-Tech Person's Guide to Landing Your First Remote Tech Job
Overview
I wrote this guide because I wish it had existed when I needed it.
A few years ago, I was working in property management, a conventional, in-person job with no connection to tech. I was middle-aged, had zero technical background, and honestly had no idea what half the job postings I saw even meant. But I wanted something different: flexibility, remote work, and a career that didn't require me to be physically present five days a week.
So I figured it out. I Googled terms during my first meetings. I learned tools on the fly. I translated skills I didn't realize I had into language that made sense to hiring managers. Four years later, I'm a customer experience manager leading teams at a tech company, fully remote.
This guide is everything I learned along the way, written for people exactly like I was: stuck in retail, hospitality, call centers, or administrative roles, wanting to break into remote tech but having no idea where to start.
What You'll Learn:
- The 10 remote jobs you can actually get (no coding required)
- How to translate your experience into tech language
- Which tools to learn-and how to learn them for free
- How to build a portfolio with zero tech experience
- Writing resumes and cover letters that get responses
- Preparing for remote interviews
- Surviving your first 90 days
This book is for you if:
- You're in retail, hospitality, call centers, administrative work, or other non-tech jobs
- You want remote work but don't know where to start
