I joined beach commute following a period of unemployment during which I moved to another country. The idea of working a remote job in a field that I’m passionate about aligned so perfectly with me. My journey with Beach Commute isn’t over yet, but I’ve really appreciated their consistent communication and willingness to help. They truly do want everyone who joins their program to succeed, and it shows. The information and strategies have been incredibly valuable and have forever changed my approach to job searching and applications.

I’m not sure if I’m the typical remote worker but I've never been a typical anything
I’m not sure if I’m the typical beach commute person, as I’m almost 55; however, I’ve never been a typical anything. What I like about the beach commute is the same thing I told Rick Sommerfield: that all the emails I get for job listings, webinars, and so forth are straight business, in the same font, black and blue. Nothing more, nothing less, no background on the company, just a position, and then you have to do all the rest, all the research, so if you get 15 jobs and you feel like you want to apply for all 15, you’ve got to do 15 sets of research, which is potentially half your day. The beach commute team sends me a visually appealing email. That I actually look forward to reading it; and their emails do not have that buy into, buy into us. You’re just a number, it’s a lifestyle. It’s an experience. It’s an adventure called truly remote work, and I know that, typically, when people think about adventures and remote work, they think of their 20s. You know you don’t need much; you have your backpack, and you know you’re carrying your ultra-light laptop, and nothing else, but there are people out there like me who have worked at home for quite some time, and they don’t leave home. I’m currently single, no dependents, and would love to be able to figure out a way to do this from anywhere else in the world. I’d love to wake up, go outside, and have a different experience. It would change how I work, and the thing I like about these guys is that they try to make it possible for you, I mean, there’s no guarantee, so they’re not making these grand gestures and false promises. They present the opportunity. which is in my opinion how it should be if companies are interested in more than you seeing them as just some job listing maybe they should take a page from these guys!

Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience, Julie! You would be soooo surprised to hear that there is really no "typical remote worker." We have folks across every age group and background. We've had police officers, accountants, nurses, chefs and everything under the sun go fully remote. You're not alone, and we really hope to see you working from somewhere that gives you that "different experience."
We're happy to hear that you're enjoying our free resources - we try to help as many people as we can wherever they are in their journey.
