Our mission is to help people find the best work from home and flexible jobs in an easier, safer, and faster way. We are committed to doing this internally and externally with integrity, intelligence, balance, communication, and care.
In the past 13 years, FlexJobs has established itself as the leader in the professional flexible job market to help job seekers connect with employers that offer these highly desired arrangements, as well as to help employers reach these candidates. We do this by utilizing both technology and human intelligence to provide a friendly, effective, and valuable service.
In terms of work flexibility, we also walk the talk. This is a remote job, as our entire team works remotely from locations all across the United States. Having a great company culture is really important to us and we’ve been named one of Outside magazine’s Best Places to Work (2019) and Best Company Culture by Entrepreneur magazine (2018, 2017, and 2015).
Responsibilities of the Job: The Opportunity
We are looking for an experienced career coach and resume writer to join our team and provide one-on-one career coaching sessions to FlexJobs members, as well as review and update member resumes.
You will need to understand coaching fundamentals, career advising, and the job search process with a particular focus on flexible and remote job searching. You’ll also need to be an experienced resume writer who is skilled at editing and updating resumes to optimize them for an individual client’s needs. The workload on an average day will be roughly 35% coaching and 65% resume writing. This is a fast-paced environment that requires excellent time-management skills and a comfort level with setting time boundaries for clients and yourself.
The members you work with will be from a wide variety of locations, backgrounds, education levels, and personal circumstances. You’ll need to believe deeply in the importance of empowering professionals to take hold of their career development, execute a strategic job search, and find a better way to work through work flexibility.
What You’ll Do
You’ll work with the career coaching team to assist FlexJobs members with their job search questions through one-on-one 30-minute sessions conducted remotely via phone or video calls. You’ll also be responsible for reviewing and heavily updating member resumes, with a particular emphasis on targeting remote and flexible jobs.
