Hi friends, I am a native Blind person from malaysia. Been using screen readers and informally testing for web accessibility for about 12 years now. I have completed the deque accessibility specialist course and in the progress of completing the DHS trusted tester course. I am in the fourth course, but the platform reset happens and I have to retake everything together. I would love to know more about the processes that's needed for me as a person from a global south country to enter into paid web accessibility testing job. 1. Is the dhs trusted tester course is a must to complete? Is there any ways for me to recover my completed courses? I have emailed them but there is no reply from them yet. 2. What other courses do I need to do to get a good chance of being hired? 3. Are there places that I need to check periodically for job offerings? 4. what are the usual salary/payment look like in this industry for a person that works remotely from a global south country? As I am new to this field on looking for jobs, Any other advices or pointers from experience is much appreciated -- Regards, Kavein Kaveinthran (He/Him) Curious, Native Blind Disabled independent Human Rights Advocate email: kaveinthran@gmail.com <kaveinthran@gmail.com> twitter <https://twitter.com/kaveinthran> My LinkedIn <https://my.linkedin.com/in/kaveinthran>
