About RemoteNest

A remote job index with one rule: show the listing first and ask for nothing.

What this is

RemoteNest is an index. It lists work-from-home openings, lets you read them on a clean page, and points you at the employer’s own application form. There is no account layer, no CV storage and no messaging inbox — just a query box and a list of rows.

We built it because most job sites put a sign-up wall in front of the listings and then fill the results with duplicates. Removing both turned out to be most of the work.

What this is not

  • Not an employer — we don’t hire, interview or pay anyone.
  • Not a recruiter or staffing agency — we don’t represent candidates or place people in roles.
  • Not part of your application — the decision, and everything after you click apply, sits with the hiring company.

Where listings come from

Openings are pulled from public job feeds and employer postings. Before a role is shown, we filter out duplicates, postings whose apply link no longer resolves, and “jobs” that are really courses, lead forms or schemes that charge applicants. Closed roles are removed so the index tracks what is live.

The filter isn’t perfect, and an aggregated list is only as clean as its sources. Spot something stale, misleading or fraudulent? The help page explains what to do.

How it’s funded

Advertising and commercial arrangements with the job sources we link to pay the hosting bill. Applicants pay nothing: no subscriptions, no boosted applications, no paywalled listings. Those arrangements have no say over which roles are listed or the order they appear in. And since we never collect your details, there is no candidate data to sell.

Hard limits

RemoteNest will never request money, bank details or identity documents from you, and will never send you a job offer — we don’t have your address. Anything claiming to be us that does those things is an impersonator.

Your side of the deal

Treat each employer as you would any stranger online: research the company, read the full posting on their site, and remember that genuine jobs don’t cost money to get. The disclaimer has the details and a scam checklist.
