I signed up with the FlexJobs service to try to find a flexible remote position that would enable me to work according to my schedule. I had no idea at the outset that FlexJobs had so many local, national and international employers with so many options for full time, part time, alternate and/or flexible schedule, contract and freelance work available. I was able to perform searches under multiple categories including region, job type, schedule desired and search out the top employers in my field. The site also offers a slew of tips on everything from resume writing to time management to setting up your home office efficiently. It is an extremely well-organized site with hundreds of positions being offered in every field you can think of from reputable employers. I was incredibly impressed with their Skill Testing option which allows you to take tests of your primary skills and records your scores for viewing by potential employers. Needless to say, I found the flexible job I was looking for (a telecommuting position) and I can't say enough about FlexJobs to express my gratitude for opening my eyes to the different options available to working in the world today. Signing up with FlexJobs was worth every penny of the subscription!

A wonderful experience
September 15, 2016

It is hard to believe how quickly I found a job after joining FlexJobs. And not just any job, it's the best job I've ever had. I work from my home utilizing web-based team collaboration tools, and travel when needed. My job supports all of my professional goals, and allows for personal growth as well.

The tools and team at Flexjobs were very helpful and supportive. They seem truly invested in helping me find success in the way that I wanted to - and I did! They even sent a congratulatory swag bag upon having been hired!

Love Flexjobs!
September 15, 2016

I am a RN, married, and have small children. The thought of staying in a hospital and working 12 hour shifts was nauseating. I wanted to work from home and have flexibility. I wanted to be a contributor in my household but also be there for my kids. I had heard about Flexjobs from a friend and decided to take a look. I was impressed that it had such great press and rated high with the BBB, Wallstreet Journal and other news avenues. I signed up for trial and found so many jobs available. Flexible jobs, work at home jobs in ALL career settings. I found numerous jobs available based on my search and qualifications. I applied to a bunch and was hired for a work at home RN job that I have been with over 2 years. It is with a good company with a great reputation. So many of the companies that I found and applied for was reputable. I recommend Flexjobs to all my friends looking for a career in a flexible settings. It is a great fit for my career and family and have fulfillment.

Flexjobs helped me transition into the world of remote work, a world I've enjoyed being a part of for about 18 months at this point. However, the key to making Flexjobs work is to be willing to put in a lot of effort. I applied to around 20 positions before I landed a job, and I put major effort into every one of those applications. To stand out as a remote applicant you have to really go the extra mile to look like an amazing applicant. If you're willing to do that, and recognize that you may have to put in a LOT of applications to find a role, then I'd recommend Flexjobs without hesitation.

Great resource for telecommuting!
September 15, 2016

It is really hard to find legitimate work from home opportunities. Flex Jobs does all the work for you so you know you aren't going to get taken advantage of. I've had the same contract position for over a year now and couldn't be happier. I've also been excited to share this site with my friends and family.

Easy To Use Telecommute Job-Finder
September 15, 2016

I used FlexJobs for just under a year and was able to find a freelance position that transitioned to a full-time 100% telecommuting job in less than 2 months. The biggest benefit to FlexJobs was having all these job postings displayed in one spot for me. I loved the easy-to-use search options and knowing that FlexJobs only posts legitimate jobs took a lot of the worry and guesswork out of the process.

I started looking for freelance jobs on the FlexJobs site in the hopes of creating a freelancer stream of work to make it possible to eventually live on the road full time. I was encouraged by the listings I saw and expanded my search from freelance roles to full time direct hire roles and found a career I'm passionate about, that allows me to pursue my dreams years sooner than I thought possible, and where I'm surrounded by like-minded people who challenge me every day. The site is straightforward, clear, and supportive.

FlexJobs is simply, amazing!
September 15, 2016

I had an incredible experience with FlexJobs! Within the first week of signing up for FlexJobs, I received an email of some jobs that I could apply for. They were a perfect fit for me and so I went ahead and applied to the number one choice on my list and within a week, I was asked to be interviewed by that company and by the end of the week, I had a new, dream job! I couldn't believe how easy, simple and fast this process was. Searching for a new job has never been easy and sometimes frustrating, but FlexJobs made the process enjoyable and a breeze. Well done, FlexJobs!

I subscribed to FlexJobs, and I found advertised online teaching/tutoring jobs and adjunct teaching jobs not available any place else. I did get an adjunct teaching position from the advertised job on FlexJobs. When my daughter, taking time off from elementary school teaching to take care of her children, decides she has time to take on an online teaching type of job, I have recommended she subscribe to FlexJobs.

The FlexJobs website is a powerful tool for anyone undergoing a job search for a flexible position. The searching features on the site allow a user to view jobs in their field or professional area with the kind of structure they are seeking (part time v. full time, temporary vs. permanent, telecommuting, freelancing, etc...). Definitely worth the investment!

Couldn't have done it without Flexjobs
September 14, 2016

When I was searching for my next career move I had a very specific type of job in mind. One where I was a remote employee, passionate about my work/industry, and involved 30-50% travel.

Flex jobs would send me positions specific to my experience and interest. Almost on week one, I came across a posting that completely fit what I was searching for.

I interviewed at the company 1.5 months later, and was hired shorty after that. I have recommended Flexjobs to anyone I know looking for work. It was exactly what I needed, when I needed it.

After retiring early in 2013 I discovered that I needed to return to work for a few years until I reach the age where I can collect Social Security. But I wanted to work on my terms this time around and that meant working from home.
I started searching the internet for telecommuting jobs, but quickly discovered that most of whats posted online are scams. Then I stumbled upon FlexJobs! A review of their site was an eye opening experience. The jobs posted on FlexJobs are real and guaranteed to be legitimate. I signed up and began my job search in earnest.
It took some time to find the right fit for me, but I was able to find freelance work thru FlexJobs while continuing my search for a full time, permanent position. I accepted a full time, permanent position with a nationally known health insurance company in February, 2016. I couldnt be happier with my choice and with my commute. A short walk down the hall. And I owe it all to FlexJobs.

Job Found!
July 3, 2016

Was shocked at how easy it was to find a remote position (I travel full time) through flexjobs. I changed jobs several times after signing up to get the perfect job but flexjobs gave me the start I needed to get in with a company that was remote, then I was offered better positions through them and then eventually got my dream job, I could not have made the moves without flexjobs though - highly recommend! Worth the cost. Here's the coolest part though, it is normally IMPOSSIBLE to cancel a membership, but when I called to cancel (since I had a job) the person was extremely nice and then a few days later I received a congratulations package with some fun things - I have never been treated so nicely when I left a company. I would return to use their service if I ever need to again and have recommended them to many people wanting a more flexible lifestyle!
