FlexJobs saved me!
September 17, 2016

Around the middle of last year, I decided that it was time for a career change.
I had been in the same job for almost ten years and wasn't that happy or fulfilled. I needed something different that allowed for a healthier work/life balance. I was constantly stressed and felt that I was letting my family down time and time again. I needed something that didn't feel like a dead-end job so that I was professionally fulfilled but that also gave me the balance I needed to have a happy personal life.
I went scouring the web for hope and what I found was FlexJobs. I was hesitant at first but could not have been happier with the outcome. I was able to review so many jobs in one place! That aspect immediately dropped my stress level and helped me tackle the major changed I so desperately needed.
I ended up finding more than one job with FlexJobs. The first job that I accepted was the first job I applied for on the site. I also found a part-time job that I could do to earn extra money that was also flexible. I now have a flexible schedule, earn more money than I did in my previous job, and have recently celebrated my one year anniversary with two amazing companies!
The site, for me, was a life saver! I can't express how positively my life has changed!

Hired in a week!
September 17, 2016

After searching through a variety of free, but ad heavy sites, I discovered FlexJobs. They had a free trial for a month with an automatic extension for a small fee. I discovered the company listings and work-from home content was better by far than the other free sites. I filled out the FlexJob profile and my resume and sent it to a MAJOR company. I received an offer to remote test for a Virtual Customer Service Agent and within a week I was hired! Work from home on a 4/3 schedule with NO COMMUTE, Paid & Unpaid Time off and benefits. I was amazed at how fast I got the job! I highly recommend the service, even for job searches that are not virtual or remote. By the way, I forgot to unsubscribe after my free trial so I got charged ten bucks, but they can have it because it was well worth it! Thank you FlexJobs, keep up the good work for us working stiffs!

Hey Jack! We are thrilled to hear that you found success so quickly through FlexJobs! Like you said, while we have thousands of telecommute positions, we also have thousands more that aren't necessarily telecommute, but might have another degree of flexibility instead (flexible schedule, freelance, part time, etc.). We are so happy that you found a role to fit your exact flexibility needs. Thank you for the wonderful recommendation, and we wish you the best of luck in your new role! The FlexJobs Team

Flexjob got me my current gig
September 16, 2016

Flexjob is the only website that I'm aware of that specializes in remote/virtual work assignments.

I am a Sales Director who has managed teams both remotely as well as in an office setting, and the abundance of jobs that Flexjobs advertises makes it easy to peruse lots of different companies all in one place.

It's not all about hunting for jobs, either. I ended getting my current job from posting my resume on Flexjobs. My current employer reached out to me after seeing my resume and 2 weeks later I was offered the position.

Flexjobs is a great resource is you are looking for remote or virtual jobs and I highly recommend it to everyone who searching for their next job.

Best job search site!

Flexible, fast and reliable
September 16, 2016

After being out of the education arena for 10 years, I wanted to find a teaching job I could do from home that would allow me flexibility with my 4 children. I signed up with Flexjobs at the recommendation of a friend who had used the service and was very pleased with the work she found. The registration process was straightforward and fast. I saw my first postings that fit my qualifications within minutes and found my current employer after less than a day of using the site. I recommend Flexjobs to everyone looking for reliable, flexible employment. Flexjobs gets an A+ from this educator! This is a fantastic company with a phenomenal product.

Awesome resource!
September 16, 2016

FlexJobs is awesome! It gave me the security to put myself out there without worrying about scams and also made the hunt so much easier and quicker. I have found multiple part-time jobs, a long with a full-time w/benefits position. It's been a year since I started my full-time position I found through FlexJobs and as a mom to 2 small children, it's been a life saver in terms of security and flexibility!

FlexJobs Review
September 16, 2016

I will start by saying that I am 2 year with my company that I found on FlexJobs and the happiest I have ever been when it comes to work and life being completely in balance. I started looking on FlexJobs because my husband is an Apprentice Lineman and we weren't sure where we were going to have to go through his apprenticeship. At first I was a little apprehensive about the charge to use FlexJobs, but honestly believe it keeps people who aren't serious about finding flex work out of the pools that you're competing in, and helps ensure the companies that are advertising on the site are legitimate. The site is extremely user friendly, and I had an interview within a weeks time. Since signing up for FlexJobs I now run the Operations Department for my company with a team of 5 people all from the comfort of my own home! I HIGHLY recommend FlexJobs to anyone who is serious about breaking the mold of a 9-5 office routine. IT CAN BE DONE!

Outstanding Resource
September 16, 2016

I had just transitioned from a full time, traditional job to a work-at-home situation, and needed a dependable resource for job listings. I subscribed to FlexJobs, had interviews within two weeks and was hired for an online writing position. I have been working with that company for more than three years now, and enjoy every minute of it. FlexJobs was easy to use, updated its listings regularly, and the companies listed replied to applications and queries. You can target your searches, check your skills, and get good, solid job search advice. It was the best money I ever spent on a job search, and I recommend FlexJobs for anyone looking to take control of their work, time, and career.

Great site!
September 16, 2016

I'm in the process of opening my own business. The demands that this has put on me has precluded me from seeking traditional, on-site employment. FlexJobs was an amazing resource that has helped me fill in my gap in employment and allow me to continue earning an income. The position I filled through FlexJobs was a perfect fit, allowing me to make my own schedule and take off when I needed. The search process was simple and effective. I found a job in less than a month. I can absolutely say that I will be a repeat user when I need to secure similar employment!

Work life balance
September 16, 2016

Flexjobs has been great! Before registering I spoke with them and they clarified that they filter out all the spam and that there are only REAL jobs on the site and that it totally true - no spam no MLM just jobs.

I was lucky and found my job 4 months after registering (had a baby in between) I have just hit the 2 year mark in my job! Not only am I advancing professionally but I am also around for my kids thanks to working at home.

Flexjobs gave me the work life balance that I could only dream of.

FlexJobs made it easy to find the exact job I was looking for. I had been searching on other sites for a couple of months with few leads and getting no where. After a brief search on FlexJobs, I found several solid leads that were of the exact job descriptions I was look for. While I was hesitant to spend money, I was immediately glad I did. You truly get what you pay for. Once I was hired full time from one of those first leads, it was easy to cancel my subscription. I have been very happy at my new job & have even received a promotion & raise in less than a year.

My Flexjobs experience was fantastic! There were SO many jobs I could apply for in my field (math education) and I was able to land a job that was a step forward in my career. Better pay, better benefits, variety of job tasks but also a level of flexibility I never knew was possible. Now, I can truly have it all- the career, the time with my children, and no commute! I recommend flexjobs to anyone who is looking for job flexibility while still pursuing their career goals. Trust me... you CAN have it all! And it's a great life... :)

Perfect Job Hunt
September 16, 2016

I was looking for a job to re-enter the workforce after my children went to college. I have found 2 jobs through Flex Jobs. When I began my search, I knew that I wanted flexibility and was open to work from home positions. Flex Jobs has researched their job listings so you don't have to worry about whether or not a job is legitimate. With FlexJobs I was able to post my resume to their site so that it was always available when I needed it. Also, you can customize your search and they will send you daily updates.
I have my dream job at the moment, but I wouldn't hesitate to use FlexJobs again in the future.
