Hey, I need some advice, please. My son has a job as a Manual QA. He's earning 2.2K (in Europe, so keep in mind that salaries here are generally lower than in the US) with 1.5 years of experience under his belt. I think it's time for him to find a better-paying job, considering his experience. His current salary seems quite low for his position. Does it make sense for him to apply for QA positions considering that he can only work remotely? What are the chances that he will be taken seriously?
