What you need to become a remote designer

I love working remotely, but it comes with its own set of challenges. To thrive as a remote designer, you'll need to:

Be extremely disciplined and communicative

  • Stay self-motivated and manage tasks without constant supervision.
  • Communicate clearly and regularly with your team to keep everyone in the loop, especially when you're not physically together.

Have overlapping work hours with colleagues

  • Remote work doesn't mean you can work anytime you want.
  • Sync up at least a once a week to stay aligned and maintain collaboration.

Manage your time effectively and avoid distractions

  • Set clear boundaries and structure your workday to minimise distractions at home.
  • Create a dedicated workspace and use time management tools to stay focused.
 
Recently, more and more companies are switching to the hybrid 2 to 3 days a week in the office. And I see this as a good balance of collaboration and giving folks time to do deep work.
 

How to get a remote job

Firstly, I would just apply for remote jobs only. Then I would work on the portfolio, CV and cover letter.
Don’t forget to revamp LinkedIn and most importantly, follow up often with the recruiters!
 
If you're not getting through the initial stages, it's usually that.
Remember: A remote job is nothing different than a normal one, as long as you can prove to do the work, it's just a matter of find a fit.
