Discussions Please read the rules before posting!
This subreddit was one of first places on the internet that advocated for a paradigm shift to remote work in western society.
We support you in your quest to break free from being a captive office employee; but we cannot allow for-hire or self-promotion posts. There are 144,000 subscribers who don't want their reddit feeds filled with people posting their individual life situations.
If you want to create a discussion post about a specific industry or job role, that's okay; but any post with your own resume, your own professional background, or your own career status, is considered self-promotion and will be auto-deleted by automod or caught by the mods.
Subscribers:
If automod or the mod team misses any kind of self-promotion or spam, please report the post.
Job hunters:
The best way to find a remote job always has been this:
1.
Research job roles that match your skills. Use job boards (Indeed, Google Jobs, Dice, LinkedIn, etc) to exhaustively search all the keywords that are relevant to you. Study all job postings to understand the job market.
2.
Figure out which of those roles are feasible for independent work outside of an office. Many job postings will give hints with location agnostic phrases or multiple cities, even if they don't outright say remote.
3.
Determine what you need to do to qualify yourself for those roles, or how you need to revise your resume to match better to the job.
4.
Are the remote versions of those jobs available to everyone or only to the people who have mastered the job role? Are you prepared to work in an office until you earn the trust to work independently from home? Do you have a plan to work in an office to become an expert in your field and then hop to another company that supports remote work? Answer those questions and formulate a plan of action.
5.
Keep studying the job market to understand what employers want and how you can provide it.
6.
Keep applying to all jobs that are within reach! It is rare for a perfect match so aim for jobs that match your skills by at least 70%.

Discussions How do you find good international remote jobs from Serbia?
What keywords/sites/companies would you recommend looking at? And are there particular countries that are more open to hiring remotely from Serbia while still offering decent international salaries?
I’m mainly looking at administrative junior jobs.
Would really appreciate hearing from anyone who has actually managed to do this or knows how these things work.
Ty in advance!

Discussions People who work in front of a screen all day, how do you not get eye strain?
So, my question is pretty much the same as the title.
People who work in front of a screen all day, how do you not get eye strain?
I'll quickly tell my story. I am a 29-year-old male who used to work as a web developer for several years. However, because my eyes started to feel strained and my vision became blurry after 8–10 hours of working on a computer, I switched to logistics.
It was much easier on my eyes, but they still felt very strained and tired. So I went even further and switched to a phone-call-based job as a customer support agent. But even that was not enough, and my eyes were still getting tired. So, at some point, I decided to completely leave desk-based work and now work in regular retail.
Of course, I went to different doctors, but none of them could actually find any serious problems. They just advised me to do regular eye exercises, use artificial tears, follow the 20-20-20 rule, take breaks, try palming, improve my lighting, and so on. None of that helped me.
I'm not asking for medical advice. It's just super weird to me because I had perfect vision when I was younger. I just don't understand how so many of my friends and people I know, of different ages, work office jobs and are doing completely fine.
For example, there was a woman who was around 60 years old and worked as a bookkeeper, so she basically spent a huge amount of time in front of a computer screen and reading. The same goes for my grandmother, who worked in front of a badass CRT monitor for most of her life and was doing just fine.
Meanwhile, I use a MacBook Pro with a very good Apple Cinema Display, take regular breaks, use eye-rest reminders and artificial tears, and I can barely work for a few hours a day.
So, could it be that desk-based work is simply physiologically not a good fit for some group of people, even if they have otherwise healthy vision?
Share your experience with me.
**P.S.** I know most of you will probably advise me to follow the 20-20-20 rule, so just to say it beforehand: it doesn't work for me.
How is it possible that some people can spend their entire lives working in front of screens without significant eye strain, while others barely can handle few hours?

Discussions I want peace and quiet. I want to leave the city. But I need a job first
I’ve been living in Melbourne for years and tbh I’m exhausted. You know the traffic, rent prices and this constant noise is driving me nuts
I want to move to a small town. I want peace and quiet and I want space… I need it
But I need a job. I’ve been looking on the main job sites. There’s almost nothing in regional areas. It’s all based in the city.
I happened to see CareerOne mentioned in an article and I checked it out. It has a regional filter. I found a few jobs that weren’t on LinkedIn. Small companies. Local businesses.
But now I’m skeptical. How old are these ads? Are they still hiring? Or have those jobs been sitting there for years and no one removed them?
I don’t want to apply for a job that doesn’t exist. I don’t want to get my hopes up for nothing
Tbh I’m confused a bit and I need to make a decision. I want out of Melbourne. But I need a job first. Any advice from people who’ve made the move would help
I’m ready to go. I just need to know where to look
Tired of the city and I need a change andI just want to find a quiet place to work and live

Discussions Should I let them know I plan on moving in the interview ?
Sup y’all, got a question for anyone who’s dealt with this before.
I have an interview coming up for a fully remote position. Luckily, the company is based in the Midwest, which is where I’m planning to relocate, just not to the same state.
I’m not sure what states they officially support, but I’m currently on the East Coast and it doesn’t seem to be an issue for the interview.
For those who work remotely, how early in the process would you bring up your plans to relocate?
Also the move won’t be for another 6-12 months

Discussions What skills are actually useful for AI-related work?
I've been looking into AI-related work recently and something I've noticed is that a lot of people assume you need a technical background.
But skills like research, writing, attention to detail and critical thinking seem to come up quite often.
For people already doing this kind of work, what skill has been the most useful for you?

Discussions Anyone else getting fake software developer interviews?
I've had 3 interview invitations in the past month where I was eventually asked to impersonate someone else during the interview.
Most of these have come from people in Japan, Korea, Malaysia, etc.
It's becoming really frustrating and draining, especially when you're genuinely looking for work and spend time preparing for these interviews.
Has anyone else been experiencing this? Is this becoming a common scam in tech hiring?

I’ve started aggregating verified remote job opportunities (primarily technical, dev, product, and remote ops roles that hire out of Pakistan/South Asia).
I share the open roles along with transparent process details (like requirements, compensation info where available, and whether there’s an AI/video interview involved upfront so you don’t waste time).

Discussions How to find a remote job that's not a scam?
So I'm looking outside my typical work field (animal husbandry and education) for a remote position because I was diagnosed with cancer and according to the state I'm still well enough to work. I'm recovering from canxer currently, and start radiation soon and will not be able to work around vulnerable people since according to my doctor I will be shedding radiation, and I was working in early childhood education.
I have been applying to remote positions since I got the diagnosis. The amount of positions that ended up being only commission based, AI slop, or just straight up scams is frightening.
I'm kinda at a loss of what to or how to determine that a job posting is legit.
Any advice helps! Thank you in advance
