We Work Remotely – New Job Board from 37 Signals
I've been searching for a remote job for the last few months. This site comes in really handy. Listing remote jobs isn't new (for example, Authentic Jobs has a clear call-to-action to filter them), but focusing on them is interesting.What I've learned so far is that a remote job is not exactly what I thought it was. Considering the mostly globalized state of the web (and even the internet), I thought "remote" meant you could work for anyone from anywhere. As a French web designer planning on moving to a foreign country, I thought I could apply for any remote job quite easily. But most remote jobs actually mean remote but within the US. Or, work from home 3 days per week, and 2 days at the office. Or even, work mostly from home but come to the office once per month.It was probably naive from my part to believe I could get a remote job easily. I thought working in a field as connected and open as the web would provide me lots of opportunities.Anyway, I ended up forgetting about remote jobs and settled for a job in either New York (very difficult btw) or London (more likely to happen).
