“Secured a 100% Work-from-home Marketing Manager Position”

NATASHA T.
4/12/19

By joining FlexJobs, I was able to find a 100% work from home position as a Marketing Manager in the US for a global tech company headquartered in Belgium. It has been a wonderful experience and the perfect match for my expertise. Without FlexJobs, there's no way I would have found this opportunity on my own. I highly recommend paying the minimal subscription cost if you are serious about finding legitimate flexible positions - many with benefits!

I was looking for a second job that I could do part-time from home for some extra income. I'd had no luck searching on my own on the internet. Luckily, I found FlexJobs. They did all the hard work for me, researching legitimate at home jobs and in less than a month I found the perfect at home job that fit my schedule. I highly recommend FlexJobs! They work! :)

FlexJobs had a lot of great listings for jobs. I loved perusing through the different categories and I looked forward to the daily emails which highlighted new jobs that were a good fit for me. I highly recommend FlexJobs for anyone who is looking for a new job, especially if they want a more flexible, remote job.

My main gripe with this site, is some of the entry level jobs, do not feel like entry jobs, looking for years and years of experience. Perhaps I am just out of touch with entry level jobs, and aside from that this was a great site, laid out cleanly, and despite the 15 $ a month price tag, it was worth it to steer me down the right path, so although I did not find a job here, it was still worth the price of admission. Highly recommended.

Reason I chose this business:

My father recommended it to me, as he found numerous job opportunities here, and got a few jobs before his permanent one now, through FlexJobs.

I have loved flexjobs and have already recommended it to so many people. I just don't like auto-renewals. I would have rated 5 stars if auto-renewal didn't automatically happen. But I was happy it was pretty easy to turn it off and not lose my subscription for the next year.

In the past, I found a job quickly through Flexjobs and was very pleased with the user-friendly site, customer service and support. I haven't really used Flexjobs since I renewed my subscription recently. I will try to dedicate some time this month to using my subscription to find online work.

Reason I chose this business:

Flexjobs is a practical, vetted, easy-to-use site for finding jobs. I have and will continue to recommend your site to friends,

Love the flexibility of jobs offered through FlexJobs. I found my current job through Indeed (and it's in-office, with a commute), but I've never been disappointed with FlexJobs whenever I've used it. If I'm in need of an online job search service again, I'll definitely use FlexJobs. Thank you!

FlexJobs has been extremely helpful in many ways. It has given me the opportunity to see which jobs are out there and what they are looking for in an employee. I also appreciated the seminars and courses which helped me gain valuable insight about searching for jobs and how to present myself for a job. I also felt very secure in that I trusted the jobs that were posted to be legitimate. I would immediately recommend this site to anyone seeking a job or career change.

FlexJobs.com is a legitimate website that posts flexible/remote jobs; it is not a scam. But do not expect great customer service if you call to speak to someone or utilize their chat box. I am speaking from experience. FlexJobs is not free. Customers have to pay and I think it is outrageous to charge people for a service and then be so unhelpful when customers have questions. There are other career websites that post flexible/remote jobs that are FREE and provide outstanding customer service. FlexJobs will have to re-train their staff and say to their staff "we are charging people and therefore need to provide EXCELLENT customer service." I wish I had known about the free career websites before I paid FlexJobs money. I am so disappointed. I do not recommend FlexJobs.

Tip for consumers:
When you call Customer Service at FlexJobs (or if you utilize their chat box), their customer service representatives are not rude or short with people, but they are not helpful. When people are looking for jobs and they ARE paying for the service, I would expect their customer service representatives to be EXTREMELY helpful. I recommend Indeed.com. There is no cost to you and they also will send you emails weekly with a listing of the types of jobs you are looking for.

We have reached out to Catherine concerning this experience and her comments and she chose to not comment on her allegations above. Per our satisfaction guarantee, we did issue a refund of her account.

We do want to address the concerns that are posted in this comment about FlexJobs. We take your concerns with our customer service very seriously. We reviewed both contact points where the question was being asked. "What am I doing wrong to no to be hearing back from employers?"

We disagree that you received horrible customer service from either contact.

Unfortunately, the request was based on having us answer a question that we do not have the information to answer accurately. Both times a contact was made our client service specialists gave information on how to follow-up with employers and to consult the area of our site where this information is published from career counselors. Neither interaction was rude, short, or unhelpful and included trying our best to give information from the outside sources we recommend using to continue to assist her needs.

I tried to cancel my account for two months in a row and they still kept charging me for the account. They gave my refund and then took it right back out and when I called to ask why they took it back they basically told me they didn't (even though I had the bank statement) and told me to call my bank (I already had) and then told me that basically I was just out of luck. If you plan to get this please make sure they don't scam you and repeatedly take your money.

Website is easy to navigate. I learned a lot about companies that want people to work from home. I decided to start my own medicare insurance business and work the hours I want. I have certified with 10 companies. FlexJobs was very helpful in making my decision.

I used Flexjobs for about a year. I probably could have found a position sooner, but I only applied to postings that I thought were a great fit for me and me for the job. I was recently hired for a 100% telecommuting, semi-flexible schedule, full-time with benefits position in the field of education.

I never ran into a scam or a hoax when applying to positions at Flexjobs.

The optional skills tests they offer helped to give me confidence in my abilities. It's not always easy to judge what your level of expertise is in a particular skill set. Their tests helped me understand my level of expertise as compared to other individuals. I had been undervaluing many of my skills.

Client S. – FlexJobs Rep

Congratulations on your new flexible job, Cathy! It is so powerful to hear that using the skills tests helped you aim for jobs that were going to highlight and utilize skills, including many you didn't necessarily know you had. Being able to not only find the right flexible job but to not feel like you were sacrificing what you needed can seem to so daunting. Thank you for taking the time to talk about your experience using FlexJobs, and we wish you continued success with your new job. The FlexJobs Team

The Germans have an interesting word, zietgiest. I'm an old man and I didn't grow up with computers. When I look at your site I become addled. The time and spirit are different. I have never used a resume. All my employment has been from face to face interviews. The rating above is not bad, the site doesn't match with me..

I had played around with the idea of working from home but the few sites I was on had these bogus jobs. After having a baby with minor health issues and my previous boss being ridiculously hateful, it made my decision crystal clear. I finally signed up for FlexJobs.com and it was by far the best decision I have made. Within the first 30 days I had my first interview and by 60 days I had a job offer with the same company. I highly recommend taking a chance to find your happily ever after job too!

Flex jobs was a painless experience compared to my recent experiences looking for a traditional 9-5 job. Flex jobs made the experience enjoyable because they tailored the job alerts to the type of work and hours I was looking for. I'm currently working to increase my freelance writing experience in hopes of one day making it my full-time job. Flex jobs has been extremely helpful in making that path easier by providing tips on improving my resume for freelance positions.

I was unhappy in my in office job and the horrible commute that came along with it. When I clicked through FlexJobs' site, I found a job that was a perfect fit for me within an hour. I applied for the job and then got hired! I liked that they have aptitude tests that you can take to test your skills. I didn't mind paying for the service because it's a huge timesaver rather than having to go through so many work from home job ads that turn out to be scams.

You pay to see the jobs but then you find they are the same jobs on other sites but they will post anything if the employer allows any sort of flexibility such as flexible hours or work from home occasionally. In other words, these are not vetted jobs that you can actually work from home. Maybe a few are but most are just jobs posted on other sites.

Hi Patricia! We have to respectfully disagree with your statements about our site We do post telecommuting, part-time, and freelancing jobs on our site. We firmly believe that flexible work should encompass each person's life and type of flexibility they are seeking, and therefore feature a wide number of flexible work options. Having said that, with over 30,000 jobs in over 50 job categories, we do have telecommuting represented across the site and country. I'm sorry to hear that you do not feel that we have vetted the positions, but we do ensure that every link on our site has been looked at by our team of trained researchers for not only flexible opportunities, but legitimacy. If you have not already, you are always welcome to take advantage of our satisfaction guarantee, by contacting our Client Services Department. https://www.flexjobs.com/contact We wish you all the best in your job search!

I like the site. I did find another job through Indeed but I will likely come back and use your site again from time to time as this is just a part time job. I just cannot afford extra subscriptions right now. Thank you.

I have only had one person contact me for a job that I didn't want and I have no experience in. I believe that my age is against me and I will not apply any longer to any jobs on these sites. I am gainfully employed but am bored and was looking for something more challenging.

Reason I chose this business:

The job market covered by flexjobs seems to be primarily based in/for the US. I am assuming that the Canadian market remains a fairly new market for flexjobs and there might not be a huge need from Canadian companies. Therefore I will not and cannot criticize the reality and use of flexjobs for Canadian job seekers, as I noticed availability through the website despite a lower rate of available job postings. Thank you!

Business History

In 2007, FlexJobs founder and CEO - Sara Sutton - was looking for something better after losing her full-time job. She was already seven months pregnant with her first child and needed something that was going to be flexible but still help further her career. Sara knew these jobs existed but was overwhelmed trying to find them. That’s when the idea for FlexJobs came: A site where job seekers could find professional-level, legitimate work-from-home jobs, all in one place, without the ads, scams or junk found on other sites.
