I have been looking for a second job to help create additional income for my family. My main objective is to try and get debt free within a year, and also keep up with the increasing cost of living. I currently work a fully time position that only requires me to work 14 days in a month on a rotational basis. I have tried local part time jobs and remote jobs. But to no avail, I can’t get anyone to give me a chance.

Can anyone point me in a direction of jobs or companies to apply for? All my online job boards are full of AI trainer position. I have applied for them, but haven’t heard responses back. I am willing to do about anything and willing to teach myself anything I have to.

I’ve been applying for remote jobs on Mercor and several other remote job platforms, but I haven’t received any responses so far.

Honestly, I’m feeling exhausted from constantly applying and hearing nothing back.

If any of you are currently working remotely, could you share where you found your job or how you landed it? I know the market is rough right now and layoffs are happening everywhere, but I still believe there’s some hope out there.

Any advice, tips, or platform recommendations would really help. Thanks.

so I was freelancing for about a year and a half doing content writing. the money was ok but I was tired of chasing invoices and wanted something stable with benefits. started applying to remote positions around february and it was brutal.

my main issue wasnt even finding listings - there are tons everywhere. it was that my resume just wasnt getting through. I'd apply to 15-20 things a week and hear back from maybe one. and usually it was an automated rejection.

someone in a slack group mentioned globalwork ai for resume tailoring specifically. paying for a job search tool when youre already broke from freelancing felt dumb but I figured id try it for a month and cancel if it was useless.

the resume part ended up being what I used most. instead of sending the same resume everywhere it suggests adjustments for each role based on the job description. started hearing back way more than before - not like every other app but enough that it didnt feel completely hopeless. hard to put exact numbers on it but went from basically nothing to a few callbacks a week

ended up getting a remote content role with a saas company after about 5 weeks of this approach. decent pay, benefits, fully remote. though honestly the role isnt exactly what I had in mind - more product content than creative writing. took it anyway because stability > passion at this point I guess

things I didnt like: the AI matching kept suggesting project management roles which arent my thing at all, and even after I marked them as irrelevant it took over a week to stop. no free tier to test first which feels wrong for a job search tool - youre basically gambling that it works. also tried Teal before this and their free version is honestly decent for basic keyword stuff. if money is tight id probably start there. globalwork felt more targeted but im not sure it was $20/month more targeted if that makes sense

the question I keep going back to is whether the tool made the difference or if I just got better at targeting and interviewing over time. probably a bit of both but I cant really tell

if you're applying to remote jobs and hearing absolutely nothing back, there's a solid chance no human has ever looked at your resume. not being dramatic – this is literally how it works

most companies use an ATS (applicant tracking system) that scans your resume before any recruiter touches it. if your resume doesn't match what the system expects, you get auto-rejected. you could be the ideal candidate and never make it past the robot

here's how it works in plain terms: the company posts a job with specific keywords. the ATS scans your resume for those keywords. if enough match, you get passed to a human. if not, you go in the auto-reject pile. some systems score you on a scale, others just do pass/fail

why your resume is probably getting filtered out:

1. formatting. two columns, graphics, icons, tables, headers, footers. ATS can't read most of this stuff. it processes top to bottom, left to right, plain text. your beautifully designed resume is confetti to a robot

2. wrong keywords. the posting says "stakeholder management" and you wrote "working with clients." same exact skill. different words. ATS doesn't understand synonyms

3. file type. some older ATS choke on PDFs. submit as .docx unless they explicitly ask for PDF. annoying but real

4. creative section names. ATS looks for standard sections – Work Experience, Education, Skills. if you renamed yours "My Journey" or "What I Bring" the system might not categorize them correctly

how to fix it:

- mirror their language. read the job posting carefully. find the keywords. use those exact phrases in your resume. not fake skills – their words for your own experience

- single column, clean format. standard font, normal margins, clear section headers. ugly works. pretty gets filtered

- explicit skills section. list keywords as a bulleted section. don't bury them inside job descriptions hoping the system finds them

- test before you submit. paste your resume + the job description into jobscan or similar. see your match score. aim for 70%+

- send .docx unless they say otherwise

this entire system is stupid and everyone involved knows it. but until it changes, you either optimize for the robot or you keep getting auto-rejected by a machine that can't read a two-column layout

tried probably 20 different job search tools over the past year. most are garbage or have a "free tier" that lets you do approximately nothing useful. here are the ones I actually kept using

jobscan (free tier) – paste your resume + a job description and it shows you which keywords you're missing. free version limits your scans but even 2-3 teach you the pattern of what ATS is scanning for

teal – best free job tracker I've found. way better than the google sheet I was using before. save listings, track application status, add notes. the paid version does resume stuff but the tracker alone is actually useful

chatgpt (free) – yeah, obvious. but specifically for resume tailoring it changed my approach. paste job description, paste resume, ask it to match keywords. I keep a prompt saved and swap in the new JD each time

google alerts – set up alerts for "[your field] remote hiring" and get daily emails with new postings from boards, company blogs, articles. zero effort after the initial setup

globalwork – free resume analysis that scores your resume against a specific job description. similar concept to jobscan but with a cleaner interface and it suggests the actual rewording, not just what's missing

any free task manager (todoist, etc.) – sounds basic but treating my job search like a project with daily tasks (apply to X, follow up on Y, research Z companies) made me way more consistent than the "apply when I feel inspired" method

none of these individually changed everything. stacking them together turned my search from chaotic to organized. turns out that matters more than any single trick

I am 26F and have 4 years working experience in office job. Recently, I have been hunting a remote job for almost two weeks. I find there’s some differences between traditional job and remote job.

Less opportunity:

It’s harder to find a fully remote job than an office job. Sometimes I will take one hour to find one jd which is fully remote and fit for my previous experience. It’s much less than finding an office job jd.

More competitor:

One of a rejection letter told me that sometimes they will receive 2,000 applications for one role. I was totally shocked. 🥲In my previous job hunting, I have never met such competition. (I have worked for a 2000+ company but the competitors for one role is not as much as that.)

After two week’s job-hunting, I was wander how people began their first remote job. I hope you can share your experience to us.😛

Good day everyone,

As the title suggests, I need help finding an online job.
I’ve spent the past 4 months applying for every and anything to no avail (sadly), I’m a struggling student who has to pay rent so any extra cash would really help out-any form of direction would be much appreciated!!!

I know getting rejected with a great career and experience (I have 10 years of experience at huge renowned companies in a very solid field that isn't too badly impacted by AI, at the level I am currently at) isn't unique to me with the current state of the job market.

But after a month of applying early to jobs I am clearly qualified by, sometimes being the 1st applicant on LinkedIn, I'm sometimes getting rejection emails within the same day....

Either I'm not passing ATS or something is wrong with my CV, which I don't believe is the case as I have had it professionally written before and in the past it has landed me big interviews, pre the current job market. I have done the usual, getting AI to tailor my CV to each job, but I'm still getting rejected for jobs I apply really early to and very qualified for.

Before people rush in here telling me they have experienced the same for months and it's not to do with my surname, that is fine but I would like to minimise any % of disadvantage I am at.

Can someone please advise me how best to go about hiding my ethnic surname in applications, when most jobs now also ask for a link to your LinkedIn?

Should I Anglo my surname on my CV, create a new email address that matches it for applications and hide my surname on Linkedin/change the URL also?

Is this something that would look odd to recruiters having a LinkedIn that is Timothy B for example.

I have posted more than 200 CV looking for remote work without any success

I am thinking of giving up on remote work and just go back to office

Remote work is just being silently killed
