“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 thought the resources and the resume services were top notch, I hate re-writing my resumes, and will definitely be using the resume services going forward.

Reason I chose this business:

It was recommended by a family member, my profession isn't widely remote, but with the pandemic raging, my living in a state that wasn't taking the virus seriously, and my job loss, I needed to try and find something that offered at least part remote. My industry (landscape architecture) is notoriously hard to seek employment online, the best means are in person through networking, so I knew this was going to be an uphill climb.

The jobs on here are prescreened and real. It saves so much time. FlexJobs has been a great resource for me in searching for remote, part-time, legitimate jobs. I recommend it all the time.

I am cancelling this account only because I have a different account under a different email address. I will continue to use that account to continue my job search.

I really like the quantity and quality of jobs available through your site. I also like your resources for job hunting and emails you send with encouragement and ideas for job hunting.

Reason I chose this business:

I was really looking a remote, work from home job, and that is what I found. I know FlexJobs did advertise the position, but I originally found it on another job board (LinkedIn). Rest assured, if needed, FlexJobs will be my first go to for future job hunting efforts and I will ***highly*** recommend you to those who ask.

I really like the site, but all of the jobs I was interested in required a bachelors degree, which I don't have. I have the experience, but not the degree.

I get a lot of emails from your site that aren't as relevant to me as I would like. The daily job lists are fine but all the secondary service messages and emails are a bit excessive.

Reason I chose this business:

Trying to find a remote-only job after working at home for a year.

Overload of "techy" jobs. But that's not FJ fault. It's the nature of the remote job market, I suppose. But it does make my job search here feel more exhausting.

Reason I chose this business:

I chose it a year ago.

While I haven't found clients for freelance work on Flexjobs, I've learned quite a bit about preparing to re-enter the workforce and it's been invaluable. Thank you!

Excellent site for finding remote jobs and their recommendations were in line with my qualifications so I didn't spend a lot of time opening emails to only be disappointed.

I have found some great opportunities thru this site. It is unfortunate when potential employers don't acknowledge a submitted application (or subsequent follow-up message).

Great website - The curated openings are never scams, but are actual positions. They are also very clear of the parameters - Part-time, Full-time, Freelance, Contract, etc.

I would click on jobs but then a bar would pop up that showed I wasn't in the area. Would have been nice if we could see that before we bother to apply.

Around the middle of last year, I decided that it was time for a career change.
I had been in the same job for almost ten years and wasn't that happy or fulfilled. I needed something different that allowed for a healthier work/life balance. I was constantly stressed and felt that I was letting my family down time and time again. I needed something that didn't feel like a dead-end job so that I was professionally fulfilled but that also gave me the balance I needed to have a happy personal life.
I went scouring the web for hope and what I found was FlexJobs. I was hesitant at first but could not have been happier with the outcome. I was able to review so many jobs in one place! That aspect immediately dropped my stress level and helped me tackle the major changed I so desperately needed.
I ended up finding more than one job with FlexJobs. The first job that I accepted was the first job I applied for on the site. I also found a part-time job that I could do to earn extra money that was also flexible. I now have a flexible schedule, earn more money than I did in my previous job, and have recently celebrated my one year anniversary with two amazing companies!
The site, for me, was a life saver! I can't express how positively my life has changed!

I like the idea of a remote job at home but so far haven't really found a part-time remote job ~20 hours weekly. Most want remote work full time from 8a-5p daily. I'm only interested in part-time.

Reason I chose this business:

Was interested in part-time work I could do from home.

This site appears to be a well designed, legitimate job site. Unfortunately, from the responses I received (none), I question its legitimacy.**Note: I received extensive correspondence from the FJ staff asking me to not question its' legitimacy, but after 5 months of service, and not a single reply, I still do. It IS, however, risk free to try the service, as the company WILL refund you if you are dissatisfied and contact them.** It's (still) my suspicion that FJ is a space for by-law required external HR posts where the positions are already filled by internal promotions or existing employees. My experience with FJ: I have 8 years of experience in digital marketing at a Director level, and couldn't even get an interview or consideration for the most entry level positions (which I tested applying to - after applying to many roles in my experience tier and receiving zero responses). I tried FlexJobs on 4 different occasions (4 months of paid subscription), and never received a single nod or interview for ANY position. Amazing.

**Follow up: Flexjobs reached out to me with good customer service and refunded my paid months. They also gave me a free month of subscription. Sadly, my experience is exactly the same. Still would not recommend, as it is a time drainer filling out the fruitless applications.

**Update 3: I honestly felt slightly threatened by the company "We take this kind of criticism to heart...", so gave it one more star. My ONE STAR rating remains, based on the RESULTS of their service. An added star for refunding my money.

Dear Roxi,

We genuinely tried to provide the best customer service to you that we could, and apologize if you felt we did not do that. As we said, we're sorry that our service wasn't a fit for you. We really wish it was. It is in these cases why we offer a satisfaction guarantee and willingly refund a users’ subscription fee... We want people who try our site to feel that they were treated fairly and with respect, and were not taken advantage of in any way.

We wish you the best in your search.

The website is awesome minus the ability to do a large search of jobs. You can only search in one area at a time. And if you forget to put in the location first it wipes all of your qwearys clean.

Flex jobs has been very helpful with their webinars and remote jobs. Haven't had too much luck with part-time remote jobs, but will still try until my account ends.

I wasn't able to match my skills to what I am currently looking for. However, I believe FlexJobs offered an exciting way to move into a new work environment.

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.
