Work from home Right: Man with dog on Vancouver Island
The high cost of, well, everything in B.C., may have you window shopping for your next career move. The pandemic has made it so remote jobs are becoming more commonplace, and there are a ton hiring in B.C. right now.
A lot of positions you once needed to drive or commute into every single day can now be done from the comfort of your own home, and you can make over $100,000. No pants required!
That's pretty important in a province like B.C. (WFH, not the pants thing), where many live within view of some breathtaking scenery. Whether it's the mountain, the ocean, or both -- we all deserve an opportunity to look at something other than a blank office wall.
Luckily, there are plenty of opportunities for that change of pace. Here are six remote positions that can pay you over $100,000 per year that you can do remotely.
