Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions, honest answers

Is RemoteJobs44 free to use?

Yes — browsing all 50,000+ remote jobs and saving favourites is completely free. You only pay if you want to apply to roles via the platform or use the AI tools. The Day Pass (₦500) gives you 24 hours of full access with 10 applications. Pro Monthly (₦2,999) or Pro Annual (₦29,999) unlock unlimited applications and AI tools.

How do I get paid by remote employers?

Most remote companies pay via Wise (TransferWise), Deel, Remote.com, Geegpay, Grey, Chipper Cash, or Payoneer. These route USD / GBP / EUR into your local Nigerian, Kenyan, South African, or Ghanaian bank account. For full-time roles, the employer typically uses Deel or Remote.com which handles payroll, contracts, and benefits for you.

Will US / UK / EU companies actually hire from Africa?

Yes — and increasingly so. Companies like Stripe, GitLab, Toptal, Andela, Automattic, and hundreds of YC-funded startups regularly hire from Nigeria, Kenya, South Africa, Ghana, Egypt, and Morocco. The key signals: clear written English, demonstrated output (portfolio / GitHub), and timezone overlap with the team’s core hours.

How are jobs sourced?

We aggregate from 8+ major job APIs (Remotive, RemoteOK, Arbeitnow, Working Nomads, Himalayas, Jobicy, SerpApi-backed Google Jobs) and direct Greenhouse / Lever / Ashby / Workable ATS feeds, refreshed every 6 hours. Duplicates and expired listings are filtered automatically.

What is the AI CV Review?

A Pro feature: paste your CV text, choose a target role, and receive a 0–100 score, a list of strengths, gaps, missing ATS keywords, and rewrite tips. The review uses one of 8 supported AI providers (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, Groq, Mistral, etc.) that an admin enables in the platform.

What is the AI Interview Prep?

Type a role + level (e.g. "Senior Backend Engineer"), get back behavioural, technical, and remote-specific interview questions with answer skeletons and red-flag mistakes to avoid. Pro feature.

Can I cancel my subscription?

Yes, anytime. Cancellation is "soft" — you keep Pro access until the end of your current billing period, then auto-downgrade to Free. We never charge cancellation fees. Manage cancellation from /settings → Billing.

Is my payment information secure?

Yes. All payments go through Paystack, which is PCI-DSS Level 1 certified. RemoteJobs44 never stores card numbers — only a customer reference. Webhooks are signed with HMAC-SHA512 and verified server-side before any subscription changes.

Does Day Pass roll over if I don’t use my 10 applications?

No. Day Pass is a 24-hour window with a 10-application limit. Unused applications expire when the window does. If you need more, Pro Monthly gives unlimited applications for ₦2,999 / month.

How is RemoteJobs44 different from Indeed or LinkedIn?

Indeed and LinkedIn aren’t remote-first — most "remote" listings on those sites are actually hybrid or US-only. RemoteJobs44 only carries fully-remote roles, with explicit filters for African candidates: region, timezone overlap, and country eligibility. We also include AI CV review and interview prep, which neither offers.

Where are you based and who runs this?

RemoteJobs44 is built and operated by a small team based in Nigeria. We started because the existing remote job boards weren’t designed for African talent — pricing was in USD, filtering by African region was non-existent, and there was no localised support. See /about for more.

Do you have a mobile app?

Yes — RemoteJobs44 is a Progressive Web App (PWA), so you can "Add to Home Screen" from your mobile browser and use it like a native app. No app store install required.
