Can I search for jobs in Thailand while on a DTV visa?
Hello. Are there any rules against looking for work in Thailand (eg sending applications, attending interviews) while on the DTV? I know working is not permitted, I'm just wondering if it is against the visa rules to look for a job while here on the DTV that would later update to a work visa. Thanks
Answer summary
Yes, you are allowed to look for jobs and attend interviews while on a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Thailand. It is against the rules to work without a proper visa, but seeking employment is permitted. Many foreigners have successfully applied for jobs while on various types of visas.

I looked for work on a 3-month tourist visa, found a job, and ended up living in Thailand for several years.
You can look for work on any visa, you are just "not supposed" to actually work without a permit; but a large amount of foreigners do.

No, as soon as you move to the right visa later when working that's all fine.

No, you can apply for jobs fine. Same as on a TV or Visa Exempt.
