HOW TO CONDUCT REMOTE JOBS OR PROJECTS?

The remote jobs or projects are so different from presential, and sometimes could be difficult but you can find creative ways to highlight your company culture online so you can get to know your talents from anywhere — and vice versa — while bringing travel/contract costs down.

LinkedIn, one of the most important social networks in the recruitment industry, knows that remote jobs are the present and the future. 
A lot of companies are hiring tech talent from all over the world because of the great cost-benefit relation, but still have some blockers at the moment of the interview. Here are some tips to pass all the blockers and get into the remote job wave.

Set clear expectations upfront.
Let remote talent know in advance which video conference tools you use so they can download any necessary programs ahead of time.
Create and share a tech backup plan.
Let candidates know what to do if the connection is poor, like turning off video or switching to a phone if all else fails.
Practice active listening.
Avoid looking down at notes while the candidate is speaking and wait a few seconds before responding to allow for delays.
Choose your location carefully.
Pick a quiet, well-lit setting, check your camera and sound, and silence all notifications.
Be friendly, considerate, and emotive.
Give an overview of what the interview will cover and use clear body language, like nodding.
Did you know? Companies have found that remote work increases productivity and reduces their bottom line.
American Express found that employees who work from home are 43% more productive.
By offering more remote work options, Dell saved $12 million a year in office space costs.
The average employee is willing to give up 8% of their wages for the option to work from home.
