No remote, hybrid, or in-office clarity
This check looks for a clear statement about where your employees are expected to work — whether that is fully remote, a mix of home and office (hybrid), or entirely in-person. Working location is one of the first filters candidates apply when evaluating a job. Vague language like "flexible working" no longer satisfies this need and causes candidates to move on to listings that are direct about the arrangement. Add a specific, plain-English statement about work location to your careers page and each job listing. For example: "This role is hybrid — three days in our city office and two days remote." If arrangements vary by role, say so. Clarity here costs nothing and increases the quality of applications you receive.
