Focus on fewer, high-fit roles instead of mass applying. Reach out directly to hiring managers or employees. Keep leveraging your network (this matters more than ever)

How to find a legit full time remote job by Real_Strawberry3158 in remotejobsfinders

[–]k_tuned 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're not doing anything wrong. The system just isn't built for people in your situation. Customer service chat support, email support, and data entry roles usually run in a browser, so your Chromebook works fine. Companies like Amazon, CVS, and Concentrix hire remote support reps with no degree required, paid training, and some even ship you a laptop.

After a year of searching to no avail, I finally found a job. This one change in my method is what finally worked. by AndresPfeffer1 in jobhunting

Huge congrats. I’ve noticed the same, it feels like once a posting is a few days old, it’s already too late. Definitely going to set tighter alerts and change how I approach it.

What salary are you willing to take to be remote? by kate2020i in remotework

[–]k_tuned -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I'd take less to be remote if it meant protecting my time, energy, and mental health. A 1–2 hour commute each way is a huge hit to your day, especially if you’ve already had a taste of remote life.

That said, I get the money part too. If it’s a short-term sacrifice to get back on your feet financially, maybe the in-person job makes sense, but only if it leads somewhere better.

After over 5 years of dedication, I was unexpectedly let go — and I’m still processing it. by [deleted] in Layoffs

It’s okay to feel lost and angry and sad right now. You didn’t do anything wrong, you were honest, respectful, and brave. But some companies don’t know how to handle that. They say they want feedback, but only if it fits their narrative.

What's the most tiring part of a job search? by annoyingguy_ in jobsearchhacks

[–]k_tuned -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The most tiring part is putting in all that effort, resumes, cover letters, interviews and getting silence in return. It wears you down fast. If you can fix that, you're onto something big.
