are remote UX jobs real or rare?

REAL. You just have to qualify for companies that are hiring. So keep up on everything new.

remote UX is like dating in your 30s: not impossible, but slim pickings.

UX is seen as “collaboration heavy” so a lot of companies want you in-office or hybrid. devs can hide at home easier lol.

yep. they exist. I’ve interviewed with 3 companies this year (all 100% remote). the catch: competition is brutal.

I’ve been freelancing UX for 2 yrs. TBH it’s way more common than perm roles. Agencies + startups hire remote, but not stable.

most full-time UX remote I see are US-only or EU-only. contractors get more global flexibility.

I’m doing UX fully remote rn. It’s rare but possible. Usually mid/senior roles, not so much junior.
