My very first remote hire from Lagos, Nigeria. turned the customer support job into a cybersecurity career in Canada - Tyler Sellhorn

I used to be a unionized government employee and now I am working for a blockchain technology company. That's quite the leap - Tyler Sellhorn

Cross-functional roles, like customer success, are way more available to way more people - Tyler Sellhorn
--------------------------------------
The great resignation has turned into the great layoff and now the great re-shuffle. People aren't skilled in technologies developed yesterday, hire for attitude, train for skills (a process that becomes constant in the face of accelerating change)

How does one increase their opportunity pool?
Separate your vocation from your location.
Study online resources, and train up.

Is it that simple? Perhaps not, but perhaps it's easier than we think. Henry's story is pretty amazing, as is Tyler's.
