Agile Working: 5 classic work-from-home jobs
Remote working is no longer simply an opportunity or a benefit to offer when hiring talent.

This way of working has indeed emerged once and for all as an opportunity both for employers and workers, who have had to alter their routines to deal with the state of emergency caused by the pandemic.
