Before COVID-19, working from home was mostly considered an exception to the rule—but over the last few months, it’s become part of the norm. (In fact, according to a recent study, the number of remote work days has doubled during the pandemic.) So what if you've found that you’d prefer working remotely long-term—or maybe you've always been a digital nomad or WFH devotee? Good news: There are plenty of companies that are hiring for permanently remote positions.
And we’re not just talking about tech roles (though naturally, there are plenty of those!). From mortgage loan processor at MUFG in the Americas to customer success manager at Udemy, there are a variety of opportunities available in a mix of industries. Keep reading to learn more about these businesses and what types of remote jobs they are hiring for right now.

3. Opendoor
Founded in 2014, Opendoor’s mission is to empower everyone with the freedom to move. We believe the traditional real estate process is broken and our goal is simple: build a digital, end-to-end customer experience that makes buying and selling a home simple, certain, and fast. Transforming the real estate industry takes tenacity and dedication. It takes a tight knit community of teammates doing the best work of their lives, pushing one another to transform a complicated process into a simple one.
Whether you’re passionate about real estate, people, numbers, words, code, or strategy—we have a place for you.
4. Cofense
Cofense offers businesses an innovative approach to stopping phishing attacks. And while team members do deliver best-in-class software and automation, they also know that the smartest machines can’t do the stuff humans are wired for—like flagging an email that appears flawless but uses the wrong nickname for the person receiving the email. It’s the power of collective human intelligence, which Cofense applies to work life, too, with flexible career opportunities for all levels of interests and experience. And, to top it all off, there are events like Bring Your Mutt to Work Days, potlucks, happy hours, and more.
