  On almost all the remote job boards I've seen (LinkedIn, remote.io, We Work Remotely, remote.com, etc etc), you cannot filter for junior positions. I don't understand why. If you search specifically with the "junior" keyword, you'll still get loads of senior-only results. Useless for someone at non-senior level.

    From my personal experience, junior or entry level work, which ever term you prefer, is arguably a lot harder remote than with direct interactions. Greener employees benefit immensely from having immediate direct feedback and from having someone around to casually discuss problems with. Both of those are arguably easier to achieve in a face-to-face situation. I'm a huge proponent for remote work and I do coach some people remotely as well, but I do think the dynamic for that type of interaction works better when you're in the same room with someone. Not sure if it's the actual reason why the filter is missing on such sites, but it would be my personal guess if we had to take bets.

      While that seems like a logical explanation for the lack of junior remote positions, it doesn't explain why it's so difficult to search for the ones that do exist. And they do...it's just painful to find them.
