Hi,

I am a Native Blind person from Malaysia and currently considering to
pursue web accessibility professionally. I am informally doing web
testing on my own capacity for the past 10 years. I am pretty good in
using screen reader and have some fundamental web dev knowledge.

I've completed the Deque university Certification and still in process
of completing the dhs web examination and the trusted tester exam.
Although I didn't have any difficulty completing the five modules, I
am quite nervous to get started on the exams.

I wish to hear from people on how they've manage to complete the web
test and examination and any resources that's been handy.

Further, how should I start in applying for job and what are the
aspects that I should look for when applying jobs? I have
close to no experience in applying remote jobs in related to web
accessibility, so any guidance/advice on looking for job would be
greatly appreciated.

thanks
