How To Find A Remote Design Job Online
Where to Find a Remote Job
You have probably heard of the Great Resignation. Whether it’s due to frustration with their current positions or lack of remote options, employees from all over the country are making a mass exodus in search of companies with remote-friendly policies. A lot of companies have strong objections of returning to the office, and they are facing a decision of allowing more flexible work options or losing their most valuable employees.
For those of you who are returning to the office without flexibility, searching for a remote-friendly job feels like the next logical step. Luckily, more and more companies are adjusting to the changing landscape and offering either flexible or fully remote opportunities. But, where do you find a remote job?
Here’s a list of job boards that are either entirely remote-friendly or offer adjustable filters to help you search and connect with remote employers.
4 Day Week
4 Day Week helps you find the best remote tech jobs from companies with a great work-life balance. The best part is these jobs are for 32 hours per week with no reduction in salary. Heck yeah, 4 day work week! You can search for jobs in North America, South America, Europe and Asia using their filtering system. While most of the jobs are heavy on software engineering, there are some great remote design options. Be sure to sign up to their newsletter for weekly alerts.
Remote.co
Remote.co compiles lists of companies that are open to hiring designers with the right experience to work in remote design jobs. Whether you’re looking for web design opportunities in UI or UX, or graphic design openings, you will find an excellent curated list weekly.
Despite how you may feel about it, LinkedIn is the king of job boards for a reason. It’s an excellent resource for job seekers who want to utilize the platform for networking and job searching. Set up alerts for remote positions and be sure to save the jobs. Don’t be afraid to connect with people at the companies you want to work for in the future.
Facebook (No, seriously!)
Even though it has become a political dumping ground for boomers, Facebook is still a great place to network and find jobs, especially if you are working in a particular industry. We recommend searching for groups based on your affinity or preferred industry area (ie; Women in UX). Then, filter it down to your geographic location. Not every job posted in these groups will be remote, but you might find a great network of people who can help advance your job search and career. You honestly never know who you might meet online! Also, if there’s not a group, start your own.
