A friend recently accepted a fully remote role with a significant pay cut. Meanwhile, my company switched to 5 days in the office this year, and with the open-concept setup I’m finding it really hard to focus. The noise and constant activity make it difficult to concentrate on anything.i’ve started exploring the market, but it seems like every remote role gets hundreds of applications within hours of being posted. Is the competition really that intense right now?

As I've been searching for 9 weeks, I can say the market is a disaster right now, more so for remote. I've put together a list during my search of over 200 companies that offer some sort of remote roles (obviously not all in legal) that I'm happy to share. Just DM me your email, and I'll send it over.

Yes

It seems that remote jobs are quite rare so it makes sense that the competition for them would be intense. There was a period when people were talking about how remote work was the future of business and all that. Those days are long gone, the pendulum has really swung back against remote workers. It would probably take considerable luck to land a remote job going forward.

I know. It seems even hybrid roles are less than before

Yes

Yup, and it's only going to get worse.
