How to Spot Genuine WFH Jobs

Green flags:

  • Specific mention of "fully remote" or "work from home" with India eligible
  • Clear equipment policy (laptop provided or stipend given)
  • Interview via video call, not in-person
  • Salary in LPA, not per-hour rates in USD

Red flags:

  • "Work from home, earn ₹50,000/month from your phone" — always a scam
  • Requires upfront registration fee or purchase of a "starter kit"
  • No company name or GST number provided
  • Tasks like "data entry at home" with unrealistic rates

Tips to Land a Remote Job

  1. Build a strong portfolio: Remote hiring is skill-based, not relationship-based
  2. LinkedIn headline matters: Include "Remote" or "Open to Remote Opportunities"
  3. Have a professional home setup: Good internet, quiet space, decent webcam
  4. Time zone awareness: If working for international clients, IST overlaps well with Europe and US EST mornings
