Before we get entrenched in actually landing a remote job, we need to talk about whether or not remote is right for you specifically. This part requires some research and self-reflection.

For example, remote work is an awesome fit for my personal lifestyle and work style, for the following reasons:

I’m extroverted, but I get a lot of in-person interaction from friends outside of work.
I love talking to people. Talking on the phone or via video chat satisfies my need for in-person communication just as much as actual, in-person communication.
I’m also a big runner, and I love spending time with my family.
I love my work, I have no problem focusing, and I’m able to tear myself away from work when I’m done for the day.
If you want to jump into remote work with both feet, it’s really important to ask yourself if the albania phone number library outweigh the cons. For me, there was major upside, and it was a no brainer to go remote and take on work from home jobs. For you the story might be different.

We’ve listed off the pros and cons to working from home below. Look at them through the lens of your own ideal lifestyle, and the lens of what makes you most productive.

Pros of Getting a Remote Job:
No commute: your once dreaded commute is over, no more traffic or annoying rush hour subway rides
Your own schedule: Nobody is watching. Want to watch Netflix at 11:00 a.m. on a Monday? Go ahead, no one will know. Depending on your job function, you can work when you want to.
Work anywhere: you can work literally anywhere. I work on my back deck when it’s nice out, but some people choose to work in a different country every few months.
Family time: If you have kids (or a pair of Cavalier King Charles Spaniels) you’ll have more time to hang with them. Obviously, you don’t want them to invade your workspace, but work flexibility allows for more family (or dog) time.
Costs: Commute costs are nil. You can also say goodbye to $13 salads for lunch and say hello to the supermarket for a cheaper breakfast and lunch.
Office stress and distractions: No one is stopping by your desk and distracting you from work. No office drama with remote work.
Sounds great right? Not so fast, there are some downsides to working remotely:
