As telecommuting becomes easier, more companies are offering remote jobs...and that illusive work-life balance.
“The remote job market often mirrors the wider job market as a whole, which is why we see fields like medical and health, and computer and IT with the most remote jobs,” said Brie Reynolds, Senior Career Specialist at FlexJobs. “They're some of the top fields for jobs in general, and they tend to hire for roles that translate well into a remote environment, where work is done largely on computers, phone, and email.” include accountant, engineer, teacher, writer and consultant.
“As we saw in the latter part of 2018, we expect 2019 to continue to be a job seeker's market where companies will need to offer flexible/remote benefits to remain competitive and attract and retain the best talent,” said Sara Sutton, founder and CEO of FlexJobs. “As this list demonstrates, companies of all sizes and across all industries can adopt work-from-home and flexible work policies to meet the changing demands of the workforce,” Sutton concluded.
