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!
Great service, really well put together. You can definitely tell that the people behind FlexJobs actually care about doing a good job, and that translates into all aspects of this online job search platform.
My job search was ultimately successful, but I am giving Flexjobs four stars. Due to the sheer number of jobs that appeared on the Flexjobs site, finding one that matched my skill level took a long time. The quality and suitability of jobs vary widely, even if I perform a highly detailed advanced search. For example, demanding jobs at a particular company that I know compensates employees poorly appear in every search alongside better jobs at reputable companies. Jobs posted by terrible employers often appear to be good matches when they're not, so it can be difficult to differentiate between the good and bad. I recommend more stringent vetting of companies that post on Flexjobs. This would hopefully improve transparency, which will save job seekers time and effort. In other words, job seekers can focus their efforts on jobs that fit best and pay appropriate wages.
My preference is to work remotely, and searches for remote work on Flexjobs have yielded better results than searches I've done using other job search engines.
Good thus far, but no one wants to hire based on age of 63. I cannot see paying $39.95 per month when I can even get a response from my applications. But thank you for being in business. You do have a great website.
I've had more legit interviews and finally a job for remote work with FlexJobs help. I hit scammers for virtual positions on a variety of other sites, so I can honestly say this was the only one where the service was checked out. They provided weekly Zoom meetings and opportunities to improve your skills by taking skills tests.

We love that you used the resources, like the webinars and skills tests to hone in your job search and find the right fit for you. We wish you continued success with your new remote role! The FlexJobs Team.
Have not found a job yet, Trying to find something that meets my needs, more part time than full time... may renew again, before the next 3 month renewal... but for now have to cut back on expenses...
It seems like a great site, however, it doesn't seem very applicable to my skills. I am in educational administration and I've had trouble finding jobs connected to those skills -- perhaps I'm using the wrong search terms?
I searched job site ratings and went with FlexJobs due to the high ratings. I signed up for the trial and got nothing but spam and jobs I am not even qualified for or out of my career path. Many came from third party job sites. Therefore, I decided to cancel with plenty of time, trying multiple times to contact the company via phone and got no answer, so I emailed. The site stated that I would get a response back within 1 business day, yet they waited to email back until after the monthly payment posted, 5 days later. It was stated that "they could not find an account for me", but I was charged regardless. Be warned! I am sure there have been actual positive experiences, but this time it was not, and I am still trying to get them to fix their wrong.
Tip for consumers:
Be very wary.!!!

FlexJobs initial trial
Hello,
Our apologize for the inconvenience. It saddens us to know you didn't have a smooth cancelation request. We always want our customers to have the best experience with our products or services, and we would like to find a way to make that happen so please be on the lookout for a private message from us to obtain your account details.
From the little bit I have seen on your website it appears to be exactly what I'm seeking. It's important the employer's are legitimate and screened. I am very pleased of that reassurance through your welcome video
It has an abundance of work from home jobs that will give me the flexibility to earn money while I'm recovering from surgery.
I find Flex Jobs to be very interesting & motivating, however, I seem to come upon a stumbling block every time I attempt to complete my resume. The pop up says every time: "This entry only accepts numbers" At least part of it says that. I do not understand because I did not enter any of the prohibited symbols. Maybe sometime soon I will try again. Thank you.
Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a positive review.
Regarding your technical issue our Client Services Specialists would be happy to provide assistance on how to best search and get the most out of our site. Please feel free to contact us at https://www.flexjobs.com/contact
Ease of use, but didn't have jobs that met my criteria. The subscription price is too high for my situation. Also I'm looking for international remote positions in locations that were not represented (i. E. Portugal)
To cancel my subscription at the expiration date.
DO IT. This website was something out of my dreams- endless work-from-home opportunities! I found a job in just about 1 month exactly, 100% remote. Spending money on this subscription was probably one of the best investments I've made. And then, once you find a job, you can cancel your account hassle-free. I recommend 110%
Congratulations, Brittany! We love that using our services made your remote job dream come true. We hope you have continued success at your new job and appreciate you taking the time to review your experience with the service. :) The FlexJobs Team
I really appreciated how easy it was to customize searches. This site yielded the most relevant opportunities of any other site I've tried. I'll certainly recommend it to others, and be back from future searches—thank you!
I found jobs on here I'd never even heard of. Gotten called back quite a few times and I love the way it set up with the resume profiles. Honestly, much more efficient compared to a lot of other job seeking platforms.
It was a good journey but I prefer the option where you apply for work and get paid via flexion and you are sure that your service fee is deducted upon paying the platform rather than getting automatic renewal when you don't even receive a job offer.
For my search for a work from home and anywhere in the world.
I have a great time using Flex Jobs and will recommend and use it again in the future. Interface is easy to use. There are still a lot of job postings that are not actually remote when you click through to them. (Not necessarily FlexJobs fault) but maybe there is an additional screening process to help with this. Also, the job title search terms could be more accurate. Only reason I'm putting 4 starts and not 5. Love it otherwise and overall very satisfied. Will continue to use for future job hunting! <3
On a recommendation and I will continue to use.
This job site offers a lot of useful tips, strategies etc. when seeking out a remote position. The information was extremely helpful and informative. Unfortunately due to the pandemic, I can not afford to use Flexjobs.
I chose this site, as I am currently looking for a remote position.
I'm pleasantly surprised at what a thorough job you do. Other job companies just don't compare. The number of remote positions I checked out even in the first few days I've had a subscription was excellent.
Overall, I don't think there is any area regarding employment that Flexjobs hasn't covered, a very thorough website. My only critique would be that the cost for counseling and resume writing, etc., is a little high. So many of us are extremely tight on cash. I wish there was a way to have a lower cost, say 50% off upfront, and pay the other 50% when you actually get the job.
I was looking for a 100% remote job in which the companies were already screened.
I have found several viable remote options with FlexJobs.com. It is very user-friendly and full of resources. I am excited to work from home part-time. This opportunity allows me to focus on my coursework full-time as I complete my business degree.
I needed something remote and after using other job search apps and sites, flexjobs.com has the most legitimate and accomodating options for a work from home position.
Flex jobs made looking for a job organized and hopeful. I came across many great options and never felt like the jobs were low quality or scams. Will definitely be recommending to peers, and use again in the future if needed.
I really love how wholesome and interactive FlexJobs has been, but like many others in the job search, having no response to any applications is very disheartening. I even applied directly for a direct FlexJobs position and in the description, it said the hiring manager was not required to provide feedback on any application... as a recruiter I know it takes less than 45 seconds to send a rejection e-mail. Common courtesy still goes farther for businesses than "being busy" any day.

It is hard to believe how quickly I found a job after joining FlexJobs. And not just any job, it's the best job I've ever had. I work from my home utilizing web-based team collaboration tools, and travel when needed. My job supports all of my professional goals, and allows for personal growth as well.
The tools and team at Flexjobs were very helpful and supportive. They seem truly invested in helping me find success in the way that I wanted to - and I did! They even sent a congratulatory swag bag upon having been hired!
Hey Becky! We love that you were able to find your dream job so quickly through FlexJobs! As you said, we are deeply invested in helping our users find success, and we're so glad you did! We wish you all the best in your new role, and congratulations again! The FlexJobs Team
Great sight but better for those with specific skills. Also, many of the employers still sneak in hybrid or that the job will become remote later. That's almost false advertisement. I used Flexjobs for remote jobs or flexible scheduling options online.
Flexjobs was doing their job way before the pandemic. So I respect what they do.
The website is laid out very well with plenty of job opportunities. It provides an easy way to search and sift through the many different opportunities to find the job that's right you. I was able to land a Virtual Assistant work from home position that meets my needs perfectly.
Hey Karen! We are so happy to hear that FlexJobs helped you find a work-from-home role that fits your needs perfectly! Congratulations, and we wish you all the best in your new role! The FlexJobs Team
Flexjobs is a great tool for job searches as they really vet to make sure there are legitimate flexible work positions posted and not scams that are so common on other sites. I strongly recommend this tool to aid in finding the right flexible work environment to meet your needs.
I had a very positive experience with Flexjobs. I found a job that was flexible, remote and paid extremely well. The website provided verified and reputable jobs with no scams or gimmicks.
Be careful on renewal date. They will renew your subscription even though it is not authorized. There is no way to get your credit card info off their site. Somehow they renewed it even though they didn't have updated card info (new billing address or expiration date). I was able to chat with someone who said they would refund my credit card in a few business days. Am waiting to see if that happens. They told me they supposedly send out renewal notices via e-mail 2 weeks in advance, and that my notice must've gone to spam. I did not receive any notification even though I checked my spam box.
Dear Ruth, your refund has been processed from our end.
I do want to clarify though that we did not renew your subscription without authorization. You gave your authorization during the billing process (we state several times throughout the registration/billing process that your subscription will be automatically renewed, and we also provide information and links on how to change that if you would like from within your Account Information area).
We are upfront about our business model throughout our site (subscriptions typically do auto-renew), and we also offer direct and instant access for users to change their settings so that their account can instead "expire" at the end of their current subscription if they prefer at any time.
We're sorry that you didn't read those options during the registration/process, however, and we hope you are satisfied with the end result (of course, when you see the refund go through on your end, if it hasn't already).
Thank you for using FlexJobs, and we wish you all the best.

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.
