    They haven't tried because there is no demand for it.

    Remote work favours experienced workers, you can ask all you want - the answer will be no unless you posses some unheard of skill ;) But yes of course, ask away - nothing to lose.

    no demand?

    yeah so back to that question I asked earlier:

    You've not work experience though. Unless you did positions during university?

    You won't find a role unless they are specifically open for graduate positions. And that's usually between march and June .

    Some start this early but the majority usually start the recruiting drive for graduates in or around this time with the peak of the season being in July/August with plenty more roles available in the months after this. Most graduate roles don't start until August/Sept to give a bit of break between college and allow the results to come out.

    You need to think more long term OP.

    Sure, your friends are important to you and you want to be close by for going out together or whatever.


    But in a few years, you'll find yourself spending less and less time together anyway as you couple off and have families. If you don't do it now, it will happen eventually anyway.

    Making a break away from friends is not the end of the world and you could still meet up regularly.
