Some companies just duck tape together Slack + Zoom + Jira and call it remote work.
This is very different from companies that intentionally architect a virtual experience.
Unfortunately, the pandemic caused the majority to only experience the first and have no clue what else…
If you look at teams that have successfully worked remotely since pre-pandemic, you'll notice a couple things:
• None use surveillance software
• All ended any hybrid work experiments
• All do team retreats
• None have a heavy meeting culture
Take a note from their playbook
Tomorrow, I’m sharing my tips for landing a great remote job.
Spoiler: Stop approaching the hiring process the same as an in-person role.

It's rare that I care anything about a newsletter, but this is one of the ones I enjoy because she covers aspects less covered by everyone else but still relevant to a big enough audience to be worth the read. It's wonderful and I love the exploration of remote work culture.

Some responses I've received from my latest article on building culture on remote teams 😊
Publishing things online can sometimes feel like a black hole, but notes like these keep me writing.
If you read something that resonates today, send the creator a note to let them know!
Signs you have a poor remote work experience:
• You check work notifications as soon as you wake up
• You struggle with deep work because you're always expected to immediately respond
• You eat lunch at your desk because you can never get away from meetings
What else?
Okay, it's happening! Tomorrow, I'll answer this question and share how to make remote work less lonely.
Hint: The answer isn't to join a coworking space.
