Emphasizing Remote Experience

Question

I have dreamed of working remotely for quite a while. Now with COVID-19, it has become more of a reality for most people. I have already had multiple jobs that were mostly remote or had remote aspects to them. How do I emphasize that on a resume? Thanks in advance!

'successful remote worker' with points on how engaged you have been and maybe something like how you worked on a team with deliverables remotely.

It's a skill just like any other - treat it as such, and put it right at the top of your profile.  Heck, post a photo of your home office to your LinkedIn!

I agree with the above - be sure to also highlight it in your cover letter!

Employers are definitely interested in knowing you have this experience. Add it as a bullet point and/or in your cover indicating that you have successfully managed complex projects and deadlines using remote WFH technology. Not the exact language, but...
