FORT MYERS, Fla. — FlexJobs is offering free webinars and resources to help people find remote jobs during the pandemic.

The company specializes in nationwide listings, research, and resources for remote jobs.

They say despite the economic crisis, they've seen a significant rise in remote jobs since April.

Their recent reports show some leading industries are customer service, health, and IT.

Some of the companies posting the most 100% remote jobs are Aetna, Amazon, and Cisco.

Throughout May and June, they say they're offering free webinars to help people looking for remote jobs during the pandemic.

“With so many people not having options to work outside the home right now, they're needing to find remote jobs that are out there. People are still hiring. We’re doing different things like how to search for remote jobs, how to create an action plan for your job search, and how to write cover letters," said Carol Cochran, with FlexJobs.
