I'm not currently looking for work but whenever recruiters contact me (which is a lot since the pandemic for some reason) I always make a point of saying that I will only consider remote work just to get that idea out into the universe.
- SteveNuts 5y agoYup, I always start with "Where is it, if not remote. And what's the salary?" Anything else is a potential waste of a lot of our time.
- TrueGeek 5y agoIt is insane that recruiters send stuff like "WFH 2 days a week!!!". I had one a couple years ago that offered a "perk" of casual Fridays. They have no sense of the real world and what it takes to hires developers.

Make it a point to also ask the hiring manager or someone on the team what remote means. Sometimes recruiters are not on the same page as the team or the rest of the company, and some companies have "unique" definitions of remote work.
