Europe Remotely alternatives

Had the pleasure of using Remote for 5 months now. What I want to really write about it is that CS guy they have on the platform -- i think his name was Oluwagbadura. I hope that's his full name. He was very helpful, courteous and very hands-on in helping me resolve some issues i encounted on the platform. I assume he is a Contractor himself. Makers, take note, he deserves a raise! Job well done.

A Cautionary Tale: My Experience with JobRack – A Scam Disguised as Recruitment If you're a job seeker considering JobRack, let me save you time, energy, and frustration—avoid them at all costs. This company operates one of the most exploitative and deceitful hiring scams I have ever encountered, preying on professionals desperately seeking work in a brutal job market. The Laborious, Endless Loop of Free Labor The process starts off deceptively normal. You apply, and an agent is super responsive—until you submit their excessively time-consuming assessments. Every role requires a new video submission (which I later discovered isn’t even watched by their agents or clients). Suspicious? Absolutely. Then comes the assessment—presented as a "quick two-hour task" by someone who has clearly never written a marketing strategy in their life. In reality, it’s a deep, multi-layered project requiring research, strategy, and planning—work that would cost hundreds, if not thousands, if done for a paying client. But here’s the kicker: once you submit your assessment, you can forget about ever hearing from them again. You’ve just completed free labor for their scam, and now you’re discarded. The same agent who was eager and responsive before? Suddenly silent, or worse—sarcastic when you dare to follow up. I once insisted on feedback, only to receive a blatantly AI-generated response from their agent, Esther. If they’re going to lie, at least put some effort into it. Concerned about my intellectual property after submitting three in-depth assessments, I reached out directly to their so-called CEO, Noel. Did he have the professionalism to meet with me? Of course not. Instead, he sent a sped-up, 1.5x-speed video response from an airport lounge—because, apparently, addressing serious concerns about data privacy and ethical hiring is a task best handled between boarding calls. The narcissism is almost comical. This is not just about wasted time—it’s about the dangerous, unethical business model they operate. What happens to the videos, assessments, and candidate information they collect? No one seems to know. Considering their complete lack of transparency, I wouldn’t be surprised if this company profits from selling job seeker data rather than actually placing candidates. I have inquired across multiple job boards, FB + LinkedIn groups, and platforms. Not a single person has been successfully placed by this company. Their glowing reviews? Fabricated, just like everything else about them. JobRack’s entire operation is designed to exploit job seekers—many of whom, like me, have families to support and are navigating a brutal job market. There is something especially inhumane and unforgivable about taking advantage of people in vulnerable financial situations, stringing them along with false hope, and stealing their work under the guise of “assessments.” Final Word: Stay Away and Report Them I strongly encourage anyone who has dealt with JobRack to report their interactions—whether on LinkedIn, job boards, or directly to regulatory bodies. The more people speak out, the sooner this disgraceful scam of a company can be exposed. And to Noel—may your karma be swift, precise, and deeply deserved.
