How To Get A Remote Job In 2025
Remote-first and remote-friendly companies typically look for skills and competency over degrees, with many accepting a proven track record of solid experience in lieu of educational requirements or in combination, with the years of experience requirement being reduced.
This means your focus should be on ensuring that your resume and application highlight how your skills are the perfect match for their requirements. You also need to evidence your skills through quantifiable examples.
In a time when the supply of remote jobs is still far behind the demand, it’s even more essential to tailor your resume so you can stand out. Here’s how to accomplish that in three easy steps:
- Spotlight remote skills like digital collaboration tools, and asynchronous, self-motivated work, at the top of your resume
- Find the relevant keywords from the job description (especially the person specification) and insert them naturally throughout your resume
- Include “remote” labels where they apply throughout your work experience
Finally, use a combination of platforms in your remote job search strategy, such as:
- LinkedIn (the networking aspect and your profile)
- LinkedIn Jobs
- FlexJobs
- Other remote job platforms like We Work Remotely or Y Combinator’s remote jobs board
These remote-friendly employers offer strong career progression and wellbeing benefits
