Remote workers reveal the best websites they use to find work-from-home jobs
If youve ditched office work in the hopes of finding work-from-home jobs, give one of these specialty websites a try to maximize your chances.�
Though somewhat dubbed the new normal following the pandemic, remote working is slowly but surely becoming a niche area again. As such, finding a work-from-home job can be easier said than done.�
Where to find work from home jobs
Though workers report increased productivity, creativity, and work ethic, companies are starting to demand that their employees return to the office. But that doesnt work for everyone.
Still, finding work in the current job climate can be even more difficult when standing firm on your desire to work remotely. Sure, there are lots of sites like LinkedIn, but remote working is not the bread and butter of their platform.�
On TikTok, resume writer Morgan (@resumeofficial) detailed an array of tactics she would employ when wanting to work from home. In her list, she included Flex Jobs, RemoteHub, Remote.co, Simply Hired, We Work Remotely, Daily Remote, Nodesk.co, remotive.io, TrulyRemote, Working Nomads, Virtual Vocations, Ladders, and Jobpresso.�
Morgan further highlighted sites like Upwork and Fiverr for what she described as freelance gig work.
Another content creator, Michelle (@michelletheluxnomad), also featured We Work Remotely alongside fresh ideas like Skip The Drive and BuiltinLA.
How to maximize your potential�
Now youve identified some key areas to expand your job search into, lets talk a little about how to get noticed.
Dr. Kyle Elliott noticed how the usual websites are hard to sift through because of the overwhelming amount of content. Instead, he would suggest delving a little deeper into the internet.
Instead, consider researching companies that have a remote-first culture, or have a history of hiring remote workers, and then visit their job boards directly, he told The Focus. You can bookmark their career packages, and then check back regularly as new jobs are posted. This way, you’re only sorting through positions as companies that hire remote workers. This method also helps ensure your application is received as soon as new openings are listed.
That isnt to say standard job sites cannot be beneficial, as you can narrow your search on LinkedIn using some handy shortcuts.
Career coach Stephanie Cully explained: A simple yet effective approach involves using the search functionality with terms like “title + remote” or “title + work from home.” This method can quickly filter opportunities that match a job seekers professional title and desired work arrangement.
