  1. Chapter 1: Find your market and openingsI share how I moved from mostly on-site work to remote, then offer three ways to pursue remote roles: negotiate one-day-a-week hybrid work, scan permanent and contract listings weekly with AI search, and sometimes move from hybrid to remote. Later chapters cover my interview tactics.
