Sometimes we just need a change.  A new line of work to spruce things up a bit.

Sometimes it’s more than that.

And maybe we don’t really know what we want to do. We just know we want the flexibility of a remote job.

So we scan all the job boards, blogs and advertisements and wonder if we should apply to everything that promises to be a remote job.

But we know that unless we spend our time applying for the right job – the one that piques our interest and has the potential to fulfill our working needs – we’ll forever be stuck in the cycle of indecisiveness, going from one position to another.

So today, I want to share with you 12 remote companies that have a variety of remote jobs, perfect for anyone looking for a career change.

Here they are:
