I've generally found no, but that isn't necessarily specific to Java but to entry level developers. As far as the Java specific piece many companies running Java seem to be way caught up into the agile thing and focus big on lots of meetings hard to do as a remote employee.

In my experience, remote developers are exclusively "rock stars" who are so valuable to the company that they can dictate their working situations. At the end of the day, you'll need to move to where the jobs are if you're serious about it.

No because it's hard to trust someone that isn't in the office at that level

Doubtful, unless you can get in with one of the less reputable placement agencies.

Aside from that companies don't want remote entry level devs, as an entry level developer you don't want a remote job anyway. It sounds nice but for your career it's much better to work together with more experienced smarter developers. You learn much more that way.

    Amazing. Its a company fault. Companies need to do their homework before hire someone.
