Career service spotlights leading companies, key advice for landing 100% remote jobs
According to FlexJobs’ 2022 Career Pulse Survey, 65 percent of respondents said they prefer a fully remote work arrangement. More than half of workers are also unwilling to give it up, with 57 percent stating they’d look for a new job if they couldn’t continue working remotely. Fortunately for workers, remote-first companies have long been a thriving part of the modern workplace and continue to create plenty of remote jobs. To help connect job seekers to remote career opportunities, FlexJobs has identified 30 fully remote companies that hire for work-from-home jobs. The highlighted virtual companies have been fully remote from their founding or before the pandemic.
“While this list of companies spans various industries and career fields, it represents a small sampling of the remote companies and types of jobs available in the growing remote job marketplace,” said Sara Sutton, Founder and CEO of FlexJobs, itself a fully remote company since 2007. “Although the number of remote-friendly companies has increased following the pandemic, these companies signal that fully remote work options have been an integral part of the workforce for many years,” Sutton concluded.
The 30 companies below are fully committed to remote work. Each of them:
- Were fully remote from their founding and/or prior to the pandemic
- Allow team members to work remotely
- Currently hiring for 100% remote jobs

- Be a Researcher
Job seekers should switch their mentality to that of a creative researcher. To truly be an active part of the hiring process, it’s necessary to thoroughly research the company several times—before submitting an application, before and during the interview, and when following up. Spend time assessing what the recruiter is looking for. Mine their social media posts, find employee reviews, and pore through the deeper parts of their website.
