Hi!! I am looking to change to remote work due to amazing life changes. I have a plethora of experience in marketing, Human Resources, executive assistant work. I have applied to many jobs and have not heard anything. I would love to have something different in the new year. Anyone hiring?

Fully remote roles make up probably 1:10, if it’s even that high… and they receive 80%-90% of the applications… people who are currently in remote roles aren’t leaving them, because they know the odds of them getting something else is slim…

To further the matter… a lot of companies are changing their work posture in 2026 to hybrid or full RTO, if they haven’t already… my wife is a (I guess) mid-level executive for a bank, and she’s 4/1 hybrid… I’m fairly high up at my company, and I go to the office everyday, unless there’s a reason I need to stay home… we don’t even hire remote anymore, nor does her company…

I congratulate you on your amazing life changes… but the remote work world right now isn’t exactly the easiest nut to crack…

I’m starting to see that as well.

Congratulations on your life changes. It sounds exciting. Finding work this time of year is difficult. Finding remote work This time of year is next to impossible. All you can do is keep applying for positions as they come up. There’s probably 200 people applying to everything you’re applying for so persistence is your friend.

Thank you for the encouragement! I am definitely still going to apply.

Remote roles seem to be really hard to find right now. I would suggest networking and trying to get a referral. Sometimes that can help you get your foot in the door somewhere.

I wanted to know how long does Course5i take to release an offer, I cleared all rounds last friday and was going to get an offer from HR early this week (by Monday evening or Tuesday) but didn’t get any offer till now.

I loved the role and I am still excited to join the organisation so mailed a follow up to the HR yesterday but did not get any response till now. I do not want to follow up for the next 1-2 days since I feel it would be too pushy from my end.
