Top 5 Industries Hiring Remote Workers In 2022

When the Coronavirus hit the states in early 2020, the landscape of remote and work from home job opportunities changed across the entire country. Suddenly, the most strict "we-don't-allow-remote-employees" businesses had no choice but to allow for much more flexibility in the workforce than ever.


As we transitioned into 2021, the question on many peoples minds were: are these remote jobs here to stay or are we going to go back to work?

Although many employers energetically put together return to work plans for their remote staff, you can't deny that COVID changed the landscape of what is considered acceptable in terms of remote staff for many employers.



Employers Suddenly Realize That Letting Their Staff Work Remote Just... Isn't That Bad..


For many employers, there was a sort of limiting belief or stigma against letting their staff work from home. They thought that it could decrease productivity, lower team morale and dynamic, that it could cause conflict between other teams, that they didn't have the technology, etc., etc., etc.


However, COVID forced many employers to adapt to allowing the flexibility to employees to work from home and many employers realized that there were a lot of benefits to allowing staff to work from home that they didn't necessarily expect.

Instead.. employers found that allowing for remote work promoted:

  • Increased productivity

  • Increased employee satisfaction

  • Increased talent pools

  • Allowed employees more work/life balance

  • More sustainability

  • and the list goes on and on and on

As we head into 2022, here are five industries ACTIVELY hiring remote as the head into the new year.


1) Banking


Remember when you had to go into a financial institution to open an account? Long gone are those days and now, due to the flexibility with consumer services, many banking and finance roles are remote. Whether you're looking for an entry-level banking role or a more skill level role, the finance and banking industry has a lot of variety of opportunities available.

2) Customer Service Call Center


Customer Service roles are popular remote jobs because of the flexibility it offers to staff members and increased efficiency in terms of offering support to their customers. They are typically low cost and can provide a greater talent pool when companies are hiring for these in-demand roles.

3) Telehealth Services


Telehealth Services are pretty incredible and have become increasingly popular, and common, over the past couple of years. Telehealth Services provide a variety of healthcare services to consumers via an OnDemand platform where users can speak to a variety of healthcare providers from the comfort of their own home. There is even Tele-Vet services for your pets.

Job seekers many times think that Telehealth Remote Jobs are going to solely be the roles for providers or clinicians and while that can be true, there are a variety of roles available in a variety of different business units.


4) Human Resources & Recruitment


Next let's talk about Human Resources and Recruitment remote work opportunities. This category is my favorite, for obvious reasons, and has seen a pretty huge increase in flexibility to allow remote workers over the past few years.

Additionally, you can typically find remote HR roles whether you're searching for entry level roles or more skilled roles.

Here are a few current roles available within the Human Resources and Recruitment field:

If you are passionate about helping people, Human Resources is a great field to go into with a lot of opportunities for advancement or progression into other types of roles.

5) System Administration


If your in the System Administration career category then you can probably summarize this field much better than I can but I'll give it my good-old-HR attempt at describing this career field. System Administrators are responsible for the set-up, configuration, maintenance and monitoring of network and technology systems.

These types of roles have offered more flexibility in terms of work from home opportunities since prior to the COVID rush of work from home jobs and continue to gain popularity as individuals look for careers with advancement opportunities within lucrative niches.


Here are current System Admin roles that are available to remote job seekers:

Typically these types of roles are going to require some furthering education but are worth it if you're looking for the freedom, flexibility and ability to make a lucrative income from home.
