Workers can now log on and work from virtually anywhere at any time. In the past, finding legitimate work-from-home jobs wasn’t easy. But today, thanks to the same technology that has made remote work possible, you can find a number of sites that curate legitimate telecommuting positions. If you’re looking to make the move from corner office to home office, here’s a list of websites that will get you on your way to finding your dream career.WFH.ioImage by ThinkstockThis job board is dedicated to work-from-home jobs — as its moniker suggests — particularly in the tech industry. The site is and easy to navigate, with a host of engineer, programmer, and developer jobs listed. You can filter by categories including customer support, design, DevOps, software development and system administration. If you’re looking for a software development job, this category has almost 10 times the listings of other categories on the site. It’s free to use and you can click to read a full description of the job and find information on how to apply. You can also opt in for weekly emails that will include new job listings in industries of your choice.Flex JobsImage by ThinkstockFlex jobs is one of the better-known boards for work-from-home jobs. It also specializes in part-time and freelance work, in addition to remote jobs. Flex job has researchers, according to its website, who comb through listings for flexible jobs and then validate the companies before posting them on the website. You can access some listings for free, but the bulk of the site is for paid members. Pricing starts at $14.95 for one month, and goes up to $49.95 for a yearly subscription. A paid subscription gives you access to unlimited hand-screened telecommuting, part-time, flextime and freelance job listings. It also includes a profile that employers can view, free skills testing, email and Twitter alerts, expert tips and resources, the capability to upload your resume and samples of your work, newsletters and more. It also has a money-back guarantee if you aren’t satisfied, and provides links to the company’s BBB-approval and extensive press coverage of the service.Virtual VocationsImage by ThinkstockVirtual vocations has listings for remote jobs in almost every industry you can imagine, whether it’s software development, nursing, education, bookkeeping, marketing or paralegal.

The free registration option includes daily postings, alerts, history of jobs you’ve already applied to, a way to save jobs, storage for your resume and application documents, a handbook and a discount on paid memberships. The weekly and monthly paid memberships offer the same as well as, “uninterrupted access to our jobs and subscriber services,” according to the website. Subscriptions start at $6.99 per week and go up to $59.99 for 6 months.We Work RemotelyImage by ThinkstockWe Work Remotely features jobs in system administration, copywriting, design, customer service, programming and more. Each category also indicates when the most recent post was made, for example “8 days ago” or “24 hours ago,” so you know if there are new listings since the last time you looked. It’s a basic site, but it gets the job done, and you can also follow them on Twitter to get updates on new job listings.Authentic JobsImage by ThinkstockOne of the concerns with finding remote work is that people are often wary of getting caught up in a scam, but Authentic Jobs puts “authentic” in its title for a reason. It cites having openings from companies such as Apple, Facebook, MSNBC.com, ESPN, HBP, Electronic Arts and HP, among other major organizations. The website also has a focus on giving back, donating 1 percent of its monthly revenue to the charities Kiva and Charity: Water. Non-profits and educational institutions that post listings on Authentic Jobs can also receive a discount.Working NomadsImage by ThinkstockAs a remote worker, you might not consider yourself a nomad, but on Working Nomads you can find a number of technology work-from-home jobs. It features jobs in development, design, system administration, customer success, management and marketing. The website is straightforward; just log on, check out the job listings and filter by categories. Each job lists when it was posted, so you know if it’s recent or not, and clicking into a job gives a brief description and directions on how to apply.Skip the DriveImage by ThinkstockNamed after one of the most appealing aspects of remote work, Skip the Drive offers up telecommuting positions in a number of industries.
