remote jobs that aren’t really remote
Content
If you lived within 50 miles of headquarters you were required to come into the office even if your job could be done remotely. But you could be hired from anywhere for the same role and be remote. What I’m wondering is, how if NYC companies start offering 64K because they can just hire data analysts https://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/Uss-Express-Reviews-E5867731.htm from Utah, how many qualified people do they think are in Utah?? I really can’t see that as a sustainable plan, and the fact that if their employees are remote, they don’t have to have cubicle space for them should provide a nice trade off in value if my understanding of NYC rents is correct.
If those positions did not contain the magical “from anywhere in the US” words in them, I would probably not apply, but since they do, interpreting what the geographical requirements actually are is tricky. I mean, it’s one thing if they want you to fly out to a company meetup uss express reviews once or twice a year. But if you allow a few days a week WFH, that’s a perk of the job, it’s not a remote position. People use location as a filter on job boards so it doesn’t make much sense to have the location set to remote when you need people who live in Salt Lake City.
First of all, she’s delusional if she thinks a Teapot Designer would be a great assistant. I’m a top notch Llama Wrangler, but I was let go from a number of admin/secretarial positions, because I suck at it. I can say that my field is not in sales and is not https://www.indeed.com/cmp/Uss-Express-Delivery-LLC/reviews a field where face-to-face meetings is needed more than once or twice a month (and that is a worst-case-scenario exaggeration). There are different ways to make that happen, of course, but a policy like the one at Roscoe’s company may be a reasonable one.
Quality Assurance Manager Jobs
I’ll go ahead and apply if it’s a job I want in one of my desired markets and then address that I’m willing to relocate in the cover letter. So far it hasn’t made much difference, and I wonder if some of these employers are doing the same thing as the OP’s recent interview. If employees are working remotely already, it stands to reason that a candidate who does want to move there and has experience telecommuting might be worth a phone screen at least. Some of this is caused by employers who really mean “you can partially work from home” but for some reason list those jobs as fully remote . Other employers will consider remote work for candidates who aren’t located near their office—but if you are, you’ll be expected to come in every day. But when I went through the interview process (with seven people separately!), I found out it was literally an assistant job for the director.
Of course, there are also employers like the one the op mentions who are just douche canoes but I think we are attributing that kind of douche canoe-ery to lots of employers that don’t actually warrant it. Plenty of consultants, speciality technology people, etc. fly out Sunday night or early Monday morning to the client site, work 10-hour days, and then go back home Thursday night or Friday.
Data Governance and Quality Manager (Charlotte, NC (Hybrid) or Fully Remote)
If you want to live in NYC and work a fully remote job, I don’t see why it has to be your employer’s problem to subsidize that choice. If you work a fully remote job, I don’t see why your employer gets to care if you are local, and only let you be fully remote if you aren’t. Of course, some positions in my field are hybrid with other responsibilities that might involved in-office presence, and those are the jobs I am trying to weed out and that leave me the most confused about whether they are truly remote. I have zero desire to apply for jobs that are temporary remote or that require me to relocate. If I see a job that uses the key words “telecommute”, “applicant must be located at x or willing to relocate to x” or “work from home within x metropolitan area” I stay away. Allowing people to just choose whether or not they want to work from the office or not just isn’t possible, apparently.

If it were asked for rather than expected, I would also see that differently. But when you tell me that it’s expected and therefore a regular requirement – no, you lied about https://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/Uss-Express-Reviews-E5867731.htm what kind of position this is. Even if the only caveat is a difference due to location. That’s a partial remote job due to my location, not the WFH option that I am seeking.
Quality Systems Director — Remote
I was 30+ years old at the time with over a decade of professional experience. Your letter is the first I’ve heard of an employer saying they did it to increase their applicant pool, and that’s a special kind of illogical since there’s no advantage to filling up your pool with people who won’t take the job. To the contrary, it’s a huge disadvantage because now they’re going to waste a bunch of time talking with people who aren’t viable candidates.
Global health insurance for remote workers and nomads
Individual flexibility is generally good, but a company approach that says “we can have some fully-remote workers but things start to fall apart if the percentage gets too high” is pretty understandable to me. If a uss express work from home company is willing to show they are doing a bait and switch, well you are free to say you are not interested. And unfortunately, online job boards (looking at you, LinkedIn!) only allow for a ‘remote’ checkbox.
What crosses the line is that “remote” means “you don’t have to come into the office regularly. Remember the boss who wanted to go over employees’ personal expenses?

I think a lot of employers are desperate and trying any way they can to fatten their pipelines.

Trust me, I have no problem criticizing my company when it warrants it. But in this situation, I honestly have no issue with http://www.logisticsinc.com/ it. They’re probably also hoping someone is desperate and will take what they can get even if it isn’t fully remote.
