What to Know About Work-From-Anywhere Jobs
Given the upward trend in work-from-anywhere job postings, finding this kind of job in 2022 will be easier than ever. However, before you apply, here’s what you need to know.
Double-Check the Location
Just because a job posting says it’s remote doesn’t mean it’s a work-from-anywhere job. Many remote jobs—up to 95%!—have a location requirement for:
- Legal and tax reasons: Certain laws and regulations may restrict where employees can work or where businesses can hire.
- Meetings: Whether it’s with coworkers or clients, some companies want staff nearby for in-person meetings.
- Licenses and certifications: Some roles require state-issued licenses or certifications for workers.
- Time zones: Virtual companies may want staff to collaborate in real-time, requiring them to live in overlapping time zones to ensure synchronous communication.
- Travel: If the job requires a lot of travel, the company may want staff located either near the region they’ll be traveling to or close to main transportation hubs.
- Clients: Some jobs require employees to live near the company’s client base.
Show Them What You’ve Got
Because work-from-anywhere jobs are popular, there may be a lot of competition for the roles. Make sure your resume demonstrates why you’re perfect for the job:
- If you’ve worked remotely before, include it as the location of your job (Name of Company | Remote)
- Create a “Remote Work Experience” section on your resume
- Include a “Technology” section, highlighting your experience with remote tools (Zoom, Google Suite, Trello, etc.)
- Mention it your job responsibilities
Work Where You Want
Whether you’re a digital nomad, a full-time RVer, or you want the freedom to move whenever you want, a work-from-anywhere job can give you the job you want anywhere you want!
