As remote jobs continue to gain popularity, I’ve noticed that they attract significantly more applications compared to in-person positions. In fact, according to Daily Remote, jobs allowing at least some degree of remote work receive seven times more interest. To ensure that the right candidates find these opportunities, it’s crucial to post job listings on the right boards that cater specifically to remote work.
With this in mind, I’ve narrowed down the best remote job boards based on pricing, features, audience reach, and their efficiency in attracting top talent.
These remote job boards cater to different industries, offering various levels of flexibility, from fully remote positions to hybrid arrangements, and even part-time remote opportunities.
So, whether you’re a job seeker or an employer, these remote job boards provide an excellent starting point for exploring the remote work landscape and finding the perfect fit.

9. Authentic Jobs
Authentic Jobs allows employers to connect with a worldwide pool of candidates, with only 11% of its visitors hailing from the United States.
I find its job-monitoring dashboard quite useful for managing applications and keeping track of job postings.
Additionally, there are promotional options available for increased visibility, such as cross-posting on We Work Remotely or featuring in UX Booth’s newsletter.
Authentic Jobs guarantees satisfaction, offering a free repost or full refund within 30 days of listing.
One downside is that Authentic Jobs caters to a more specific audience due to its industry focus, which might result in fewer applicants. It also lacks some features like a resume database, candidate matching, or ATS integration, which could help recruit candidates more efficiently.

A unique feature of Dribbble is that you can swap out job postings without needing to pay for a new listing. Once a position is filled, simply replace the job title and description with a new one.
Though the pricing may be similar to or higher than more general job boards, Dribbble is ideal for companies that want to quickly find top designer talent by investing in a premium platform.
