What is a Remote Job?


Remote job search is not just about finding jobs or landing interviews; it's also about being prepared for those interviews and having all of your ducks in order before you even send out an email (or make an appointment). This means keeping track of everything from resumes/cover letters/interview tips/social media presence knowledge so that when you do go head-to-head with others in your field who are using these same tools as well, they'll have no chance against you!


Let me break down exactly what I mean by this:


If you're looking for a remote job, you've come to the right place. I'm going to show you how to get one in just six easy steps.


Step 1: Look for remote jobs on job boards


When you're looking for remote jobs, look for those that focus on your industry, location and job title. If a company wants someone to work remotely from home but doesn't specify that in their ad, then it's not worth applying.


For example: if you're an accountant in New York City who has been actively looking for a job with a startup that needs accountants but doesn't mention this requirement in their ad (or even hint at it), then don't bother applying—they probably aren't looking for an accountant! Instead of wasting time sending resumes and creating cover letters just to get rejected by these companies because they didn't specify what type of position they were hiring someone for (and how much money they were offering), try again later when they are more specific about what kind of person they want desperately enough so as not waste any more time or effort doing anything else besides applying elsewhere first.


Step 2: Search LinkedIN for these job titles

Now that you've got the job title, it's time to search LinkedIN for remote roles.

  • Search for jobs that are in your field: If you're looking for a remote job, the first thing to check is whether or not it's listed on LinkedIN. You can use this tool from LinkedIN to find out if there are any open positions at companies where you have experience or contact information (a good place to start). If there aren't any listings yet, then keep an eye out in case one pops up later!

  • Search for jobs that pay well: Once again, using this tool will help narrow down what types of jobs might be available based on salary range and growth potentials—and since we're talking about big money here ($100K+), make sure they're worth checking out!

Step 3: Write a killer resume


The next step is to write your resume. Many people think that by simply grabbing a template from the Internet and filling in the blanks, they can land a job as a remote employee. But this isn't true—you have to ensure that your resume is easy to read and understand, or else you'll be passed over for all those other amazing candidates! Make sure that your resume is professional, free of typos, and is visually nice to look at.

Step 4: Apply to a lot of jobs


The fourth step is to apply for as many jobs as you can. Volume is key, here. You don't have to wait until you find one that's perfect, but if there's one thing I've learned from my own experience and from working with hundreds of other people, it's that the best way to get hired is by applying for things you're qualified for—and not just because they look good on paper or are in a popular industry.


If all else fails, consider sending out sample applications and cover letters (or even resumes) until something sticks.


Step 5: Get hired


Once you get hired, it's time to get down to business. The first thing that your new boss will want to know is if you're a good fit for their company. This means taking the time to understand what they do and why they need someone like yourself on board. You should also be able to explain how your skills would benefit the organization and demonstrate that you're willing and ready for the responsibilities ahead of you.


If everything goes according to plan and if nothing goes wrong you'll find yourself working remotely in no time.


Step 6: Don't give up


You've applied for the job, and you've been rejected. It's true that this can be discouraging, but don't let it get you down.


You're still in the game! Persistence is key. Keep applying until you find a remote job that fits your skillset and interests. If a company doesn't respond to your application, don't take it personally—they may not have hired anyone yet or simply weren't interested in hiring at all (or maybe they were but decided not to offer the position). And if an employer does respond but then turns out not to be what they said they were looking for? That's okay too! You're still getting experience working remotely while also building up contacts within their organization as well as learning on the job - all valuable skills which will help you on your journey to achieving a permanent remote job.

Getting a $100K remote job is all about networking, being persistent and taking calculated risks. If you're new to the world of remote work, it can be hard to get started. But if you follow these six steps we've outlined above, getting your first job will be a breeze.
