This shady practice of denying remote applicants from CO may become less common now that NYC has a similar wage transparency law in effect. I can’t imagine any reputable company wanting to exclude that many qualified candidates. Especially since I assume other major cities and states will follow NYC soon.
Agreed. CA, WA, CT have all followed suit as well.
I actually had a 3rd party recruiter reach out for a role & then tell me I’m ineligible because Colorado. I then applied directly via the companies website & got hired. That was 15 months ago & I’ve been remote ever since.
I believe it’s now a law in NY too so maybe hiring managers and recruiters will change their tune.
Recently was on the market. I did land a remote gig ($130k/7wks PTO), but I have also been denied because of living in CO.
Congrats!
Colorado recently introduced a law requiring companies to provide a salary range for job descriptions and employment ads. Companies outside of Colorado don't want to comply so they avoid Colorado employees.
Accurate - though it’s not that companies will not consider CO employees, they use it as a CYA in the job description to enable them to get around the legal requirements of the job post. I would disregard that disclaimer and still apply if you’re interested.
I work remotely in CO. Average to higher income. Did they say why they didn’t want to move forward?
I am remote with a company based outside of Colorado, starting 6 months ago, making over $160k.
I was contacted by a recruiter a while ago so I checked their website which said not open to people in Colorado, so I told the recruiter. The recruiter said oh that's fine we can still work with you.
I had many interviews with out-of-state companies, and have no reason to believe that my Colorado-based location was a problem.
I have also had recruiters contact me as recently as last week for Colorado based jobs which still don't bother saying the range.
Wish I went into engineering! Haha that’s awesome man
Am remote. In Denver. High income.
Rising Star
90% remote 10% travel for me right now.

Y’all hiring??
In a in a revised Interpretive Notice & Formal Opinion (INFO Notice) issued July 21, 2021, the CDLE declared that excluding Colorado applicants does not defeat EPEWA’s requirements. Under the new guidance, a job is “performed entirely outside of Colorado” only if it is tied to a physical non-Colorado worksite. Clearly taking aim at explicit efforts to avoid posting compensation and benefits, the INFO Notice states, “[A] remote job posting, even if it states that the employer will not accept Colorado applicants, remains covered by the Act’s transparency requirements . . . .”
"... a company that omits compensation by posting that a remote job is available for anyone in any location except for Coloradoans is not compliant with the Act." Employers that violate the job posting requirements may be required to pay a fine of between $500 and $10,000 for each violation. The Department will waive all fines if an employer brings its postings into compliance after the first violation.
Is there no way of just accepting the salary they’re offering???
Since the pandemic I’ve worked remotely for 2 different companies that are based in Denver but still allow remote work. I turned my LinkedIn on to “open to opportunities” and had a lot of recruiters reach out about remote jobs.
What’s the problem? I’m confused
Yeah iam not sure either
Pro
I’m 90-95% remote minus the occasional work trip
I have been remote for a company based out of CA but has an office in Denver. They are making it optional but do not require anyone to be in the office.
I have also seen ridiculous ranges. For a software engineer it could make sense but not for a CxO.

$130k- I’ve been out of school for only a year and it was 30k more than I was making. Took it as a win.
I’m remote. I started in another state and moved here—my company didn’t mind.
I’m aware of the issue and understand nexus. My last company didn’t like hiring from Colorado due to the act. But I’m not the first person from HubSpot to come here—we hire in CO and publicly post salary bands.
Your caps lock is…stressful.
I’m full time remote. Brought my job with me from Brooklyn to Denver. My company was fully remote before the pandemic, encouraged me to move west, and I’ve been working from home for a little over 8 years. Curious to see what the job market is like here, but don’t plan to leave company within next year.
I’ll add my fiancé was working remote in Illinois and when he moved to Colorado they told him it’s not a state he could work in. He had to leave his job and start a new one once we got here.
I work for a SF based company remotely here in CO.
Interesting that they said you were unhirable being in CO. Do they allow remote elsewhere?
