Remote work ads are disappearing

The allure of remote work is rising, even as opportunities fade. The number of remote-job listings on LinkedIn hit an all-time high in February, with a fifth of U.S. postings being for off-site or work-from-home positions. These drew a total of 50% of applications on the site. By last month, however, remote postings had shrunk to 14% of U.S. jobs — yet drew 52% of applications. Data from 14 countries, including the U.K., Germany and India, show that interest in remote work arrangements globally is roughly twice the available positions.

 

  • While remote-work opportunities existed before the pandemic, the need to socially distance during it has accelerated the trend by 30 years, estimates Stanford economist Nick Bloom.
