Why Do Some Remote Jobs Require a Location?

The FlexJobs Podcast: Career Advice & Job Search Tips

For many, one of the benefits of remote work is the ability to work from home, wherever that might be. However, what most people don’t realize is that the vast majority of remote jobs often require a person to be based in a specific location.

Here at FlexJobs, we’re often asked why remote jobs have location requirements because people tend to think of remote positions as being the same as “work from anywhere” jobs.

Although these types of jobs are definitely out there, the reality is that 95% of the remote jobs our researchers find actually have geographic requirements, whether it’s a specific state, city, country, or even region of the country.

FlexJobs is a subscription service for job seekers that features flexible and remote jobs. With an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau and a 4.7 rating from over 10,000 reviews, FlexJobs ensures that customers have a safe and positive remote job searching experience - without the ads, scams and junk found on other job sites.
