Find out why Remote.com is more than a job board—plus a simple 2-minute reset to clear your head between tasks and stay focused all day.

Welcome to you and the 11,741 other remote hustlers!
First, here’s a list of remote work companies (we keep this updated).
And from that list, we’re spotlighting the newest additions…
Remote Work Hotspot of the Week
Remote.com isn’t your average job board—it’s built for global work.
Started in 2019 by a pair of remote-first founders, it has grown into a full platform that helps companies hire (and pay) talent anywhere in the world. And if you’re a remote worker? That opens a lot of doors.
What makes it stand out? It does more than post jobs.
Remote.com handles payroll, benefits, and legal stuff for companies—so they can actually hire you, even if you’re on the other side of the planet. That means the jobs listed here are legit and truly global.
It also gives you clear filters: time zone, salary, travel requirements. No mystery listings or “hybrid but maybe remote” jobs.
And their AI-powered Recruit tool helps match you with roles that actually fit your skills and preferences.
If you’re looking for serious, long-term remote work with international teams, Remote.com is one to keep an eye on. It’s less of a job board, more of a remote work engine.

Now, let’s talk about the top 3 in-demand roles on that platform:
Software Development
If you like building real tools and solving real problems with code, this is your lane.
Software development is the top hiring category on Remote.com. Roles range from full-stack engineers to app developers and AI specialists.
You’ll see languages like Python, JavaScript, Go, and Swift all over the listings—plus newer stuff like AI model integration or blockchain architecture depending on the team.
Many companies are hiring globally, offering remote-first benefits, async work, and long-term contracts.
If you’ve got experience and want to work on serious products with international teams, this category stays stacked.
Accounting & Finance
If you’re organized, detail-obsessed, and don’t mind spreadsheets, finance roles are everywhere.
Accounting, auditing, and financial operations are in steady demand—especially for companies scaling across borders who need to stay compliant.
You’ll find remote openings for bookkeepers, payroll leads, and financial analysts. Bonus if you’ve worked with global tax rules or tools like QuickBooks, Xero, or Stripe.
Great fit if you like routine, precision, and working quietly in the background of fast-moving teams.
Marketing & Growth
If you know how to capture attention and turn it into clicks, leads, or sales—this is your time.
Remote.com features marketing roles across SEO, performance ads, content, lifecycle email, and brand storytelling. Most are with startups or tech companies trying to grow lean and fast.
They want people who can own a channel, run experiments, and prove ROI. Platforms like HubSpot, Meta Ads, and GA4 show up often.
If you’re analytical but also creative, this is high-impact work that scales with your skill.

This Week’s Remote Work Hack
Jumping from meeting to meeting, Slack to email, doc to deck?
No wonder your brain feels scrambled by lunch.
That’s where the Context Switch Reset can help.
It’s a quick 2-minute routine that clears the mental clutter between work blocks—so you’re not carrying fog from one task into the next.
Close all tabs and windows you don’t need anymore
Write one sentence about what you’re doing next (yes, just one)
Take three slow, intentional breaths

Why it works:
Your brain isn’t built for nonstop switching. Without a reset, you drag attention residue into whatever’s next.
This mini-reset gives your mind a clean slate. It snaps you out of autopilot, helps you re-focus, and lowers the friction of getting started again.
You don’t need to meditate or take a walk—just two minutes of intentional transition is enough to recharge your mental battery.
How to make it stick:
Do it every time you wrap up a meeting or finish a big task block. Add a recurring 2-minute buffer to your calendar. Keep a sticky note with the steps on your monitor.
Bonus hack:
Pair this with a “mode switch” playlist. Have a go-to song you play between work blocks. It signals your brain it’s time to shift gears—and builds a ritual you’ll actually look forward to.
This one tiny pause can make your whole day feel smoother, calmer, and way more productive.
Oh, and if you’d like more side hustle and money-making ideas, you can sign up for my newsletter here.
Here’s to fewer foggy transitions and more focused progress. Try the Context Switch Reset between tasks this week—and notice how much sharper and calmer your day feels.
See you next week!
