10 Entry-Level Positions That Offer Telecommuting Benefits

Debunking the myth that entry-level jobs can’t be flexible or that only experienced professionals can attain work flexibility, FlexJobs has identified a sample of 10 remote entry-level jobs for new college graduates to consider. The National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) indicates a positive job market for the projected 1,870,000 new bachelor’s degree level graduates in the class of 2016, joining their fellow Millennials in what is now the largest generation in the U.S. workforce after having surpassed Generation X.

Remote jobs offer the type of autonomy, freedom, and work/life balance this demographic so famously demands. Deloitte’s global study found that Millennials’ top priority is having a good work/life balance, ahead of opportunities for career progression. Coming in third is flexible work, ahead of professional development, the company’s reputation, and finding their work meaningful.

According to a PwC survey, 38% of Millennials imagined their work schedules as a mixture of traditional hours and flexibility, while nearly a third anticipated flexible hours as the norm. FlexJobs found that, when it comes to flexible work, Millennials prefer full-time telecommuting (85%), with work/life balance (84%) the primary driver for why they seek flexible work.
