Type of job: Remote, any industry
You’re likely familar with We Work Remotely if you’ve been looking for remote work in the past: In its own words, this platform is “home to the largest remote work community in the world with 4.5M visitors.”
This site is popular online for the wide range of jobs you’ll be able to look through. Marketing, social media, design, and plenty of other white collar positions are open on the site now, so you won’t be limited to software engineering positions.
Currently, the website says it hosts 33,261 open positions — all remote.
Type of job: Remote, tech
NextCommit took off on Product Hunt, which is another way of saying that tech nerds love it. The job board uses AI to comb the internet for the latest remote tech job openings. It also says it helps you with finetuning your CV, as well.
You can download NextCommit as an app. It’s free to use, but it also includes a paid tier (€3.90/week) that expands your access to all job postings on the app, not just the most recent.
Type of job: Remote, any industry
This board handles a wide range of industries, from accounting to data entry to design to healthcare. Each market segment gets its own page, with the newest openings listed at the top of each one. Along with the usual filtering options like part-time or full time, you’ll be able to filter for “High-paying,” and “International” positions, if you’d like.
Type of job: Remote
Remote OK is used by over two million remote workers, so it’s doing something right. It’s filtering options are more complex than most boards, with a sliding scale that you can adjust to the exact salary range you’re on the market for.
You’ll even be offered a range of must-have benefits that you can pick and choose from during the filtering process, from standards like a 401(k) or insurance to next-level benefits like a 4-day work week or unlimited vacation. There’s even an option for “no politics at work,” if that sounds appealing at all.
Type of job: Remote, international
Most of the other job boards on this list are focused on US-based remote locations. Remotive, however, has options for a selection of other countries as well: You can apply to work remotely from the UK, Canada, Germany, and France.
Companies like Square, Stripe, and Shopify all hire through this site, making it a handy portal to remote-friendly tech companies that are nice to have on your resume.
Type of job: Remote and in-person, Startups
Wellfound — previously known as Angel.co — focuses heavily on offering startup jobs. Companies with just a handful of employees are always looking for their next hire through this website, which means that it’s a great job board for ambitious go-getters to want to move fast and maybe nab some stock options in the bargain.
Granted, this board offers in-person roles as well, but just the fact that it focuses on startups means that it will always have a healthy amount of remote-only positions. Startups don’t have the same resources as the biggest tech companies, and so they’re much more likely to lean into remote-first workplaces in order to find an edge over their competition.
Type of job: Remote and in-person, tech
Another tech-and-startups-focused board, Built In offers in-person as well as fully remote positions. This website does a lot: In addition to job openings, you can check out its learning portal for online courses, read through articles, or see what the average base salary is for your job category, title, and location (including remote).
Type of job: Remote and in-person, government
USA Jobs is the employment portal for the US government, and can be a great way to bag a remote role working for Uncle Sam. One of the best things about the site is that it actually lists salaries for all positions. Phew, what a concept! Government roles might also be appealing too, as they tend to offer good benefits and pensions.
The site isn’t exclusively for remote jobs, but you can exclude in-office positions. At the time of writing we found there there were hundreds of work from home positions available, from chemist to cyber-security consultant.
Type of job: Remote, US only
This one seems cool, but we stuck it at the bottom because you only get one 7-day free trial before you have to pay $14 per month to access it. Paying in order to get the chance to be paid full-time? Yeesh.
