Hey, wanna hear something cool? Remotive started an audio series for remote workers, by remote workers, about the remote work/life experience! The first installment features Remotive's founder, Rodolphe Dutel, discussing how to find remote work.

The good news is September is a great time to apply for a new job...The bad news is that doesn’t guarantee you an interview.

Summer is over, y'all. 😿 Time to refocus on work or restart your job search. Use this September to reboot your life and make it better.

The Remotive team went on our first-ever company retreat this year. Yay! 🙌 I wrote an article about the experience, then turned it into a video. Let me know what you think.

✌️ Two things: 1. You get a say in how this day goes. 2. You are going to have a great day.

This week on the Remotive Newsletter, we're discussing: the weird post-pandemic job market, remote work catfishing, long-distance collaboration, and impostor syndrome. Do you like this content? Reply to this email; tell us what you want to see more (or less) of.

“You should never view your challenges as a disadvantage. Instead, it’s important for you to understand that your experience facing and overcoming adversity is actually one of your biggest advantages.”

What is your dream job? Is it fully remote or hybrid? Flexible or fixed schedule? Front of house or back of house? If you don't love your current gig, find a better fit. It's possible to love your job even in these turbulent times.

Happy Monday! Here's a quote from "Oh, the Places You'll Go!" by Dr. Suess: You're off to Great Places! Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So...get on your way!

Greetings from Croatia! The Remotive team is meeting in Split for our first company retreat! 🤯😃🥳 Give us a shout if you're also in Croatia this week.

My favorite remote work perk is being able to pick up my laptop and go! I’m visiting my cousin right now and somehow staying productive while her 1-year-old toddles around me. Maybe next month I’ll be sipping Mai Tais in Ibiza.🍹🏖️😉

Did you know I found my first remote job on Remotive? In 2018, after 2 months of searching, I found a hybrid position as Assistant Manager at a boutique nail polish company. I haven't worked full time at an office since that first remote job.😏 -Rachel

Happy Monday! I wrote you a poem: 🎧Headsets rule, 💻laptops too, Slack is cool, and so are you! 🤗 -Rachel
