I want to work in big tech but I live outside of a major tech hub. What should I do?

Big tech roles (Meta, Google, Apple, Amazon, etc.) are almost exclusively concentrated in the Bay Area, Seattle, and New York. If you're unwilling to relocate, you'll need to focus on companies that are truly remote-friendly or have a local presence. For big tech specifically, unless the role is explicitly remote, relocating is usually required. Your CSM will build your target company list around your actual constraints so you're not burning time on opportunities that won't work for your situation.
