Review:

FlexJobs attracts remote working professionals from over 60 job categories, be they part-time, freelance, or flexible. Beyond recruiting, they offer employer branding, consulting, and leadership services.

While the platform features thousands of jobs that can be done remotely from anywhere in the world, employers looking for remote staff based in Canada can specify this requirement in their listings. Although more than half of the roughly 3 million monthly visits to the website come from the U.S., around 100,000 visits originate from Canada.

Pros:

  • All membership plans include unlimited job listings and resume searches.
  • Employers can specify whether they are looking for remote workers who are locally based.
  • Employers have access to job feeds from more than 20 of the biggest applicant tracking systems (ATSs).
  • The service for employers includes customized, branded employer profiles with blog posts, testimonials, and more.
  • Employers also have access to activity and data reporting for better analytics.
  • All plans include dedicated account support.

Cons:

  • FlexJobs does not list pricing in Canadian dollars.
  • The website is not available in French.
  • The site no longer offers its basic service for free.
  • Vetted membership requests ensure that job listings are legitimate but also increase the barrier to entry for employers.

Reputation:

FlexJobs attracts the best remote workers because of its vetting system and stellar reputation for being scam-free. It is one of the most respected resources for remote work opportunities.

On Trustpilot, FlexJobs has a rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars based on more than 2,600 reviews. While the majority of feedback is from users based in the U.S., there are at least three Canadian users who reported excellent experiences using the platform.

FlexJobs vs. Eluta.ca:

While not strictly a remote job board, Eluta.ca allows employers to include the words "Work From Home" or "Remote" in their job titles or descriptions. Eluta.ca is a local Canadian job board with free and paid options that start at C$199.00 per job post, compared to FlexJobs' starting price of US$399.00 per month.

FlexJobs vs. We Work Remotely:

Both We Work Remotely and FlexJobs allow employers to post jobs in Canada without having a Canada-specific job board. We Work Remotely has a larger audience and a lower starting price at US$299.00, but FlexJobs' exclusive membership offers more advanced features. Both are excellent platforms.

FlexJobs vs. Jobspresso:

Jobspresso's pricing starts at US$299.00 for one job listing that lasts 90 days, whereas FlexJobs charges US$399.00 per month to post an unlimited number of job ads. Their main difference is that Jobspresso targets tech professionals, while FlexJobs is a general remote job board.
