Hi Diane,

That sounds frustrating! But, I think you can remedy that problem in just a few steps. Instead of typing remote directly into the location box, click on the location box and select “remote.” This will bring up all (and I do mean ALL) of the jobs posted that were selected as remote-friendly by the company hiring.

From there, you will get a LONG list of remote jobs (thousands of them). A good way to narrow them down is by using filters. I recommend clicking on “all job filters.” Then you can narrow down the list by “job function.” That way you can find specific remote jobs outside of data entry. I hope this help!

Happily,

I have been searching on Linkedin for many years for both full time and remote jobs. I have changed my profile to the job I am searching for and have experience doing. Everytime I put “remote” in the search boxes in Linkedin it comes up data entry and they are never legit jobs.
I put in both job title and remote, but every time it comes data entry. My profile doesn’t have data entry in it, so I am having a hard time figuring out on how I can just remote in Linkedin and not have data entry only come up. There are more jobs out there to do remote than just data entry. I also put in virtual, but haven’t put telecommute. So, I want to know how I can search on Linkedin for remote jobs that as a whole, not just data entry
There isn’t many full time jobs around me other service or retail jobs. So, I have been trying to find legit work at home jobs with companies that reputable and not scams.
