I know the job marker is pretty rough these days, but still, I'm wondering.

Is it possible for a western company to hire me, as an African, perhaps remotely?

I have been lured by websites like Mercor, etc... offering nice remote work, but I figured out that they mostly wanted my data.

Is it possible for me to get hired at all or should I just try entrepreneurship and mainly focus on copying ideas that worked in the western world for the African market?
