Frequently Asked Questions

How does Walkable Work define ‘walkable’?

We don't strictly define ‘walkable’ - our goal is to make job seekers more aware of location so they can make the best decision for their lifestyle. This could mean a short walk, a bike ride, a subway trip, or even a longer commute if that's what works best for you.

Is Walkable Work only for full-time jobs?

While we focus on full-time opportunities, you may also find part-time and contract positions that prioritize in-person work.

How often are new jobs added?

We update our job listings regularly to ensure you have access to the latest opportunities in your area.

Why is location-based job search important?

Location can be a crucial factor in job satisfaction and work-life balance. While it's not the only consideration, proximity to work can significantly impact your daily life, commute time, and overall job experience.

How is Walkable Work different from other job platforms?

Unlike many job platforms that don't prioritize location, Walkable Work allows you to find jobs based on proximity to your home or preferred area. This feature addresses the frustration many job seekers face when unable to filter jobs by location on other platforms.

Can I still use Walkable Work if I'm open to longer commutes?

Absolutely! While we focus on nearby opportunities, you can adjust your search radius to include jobs further away if you're open to longer commutes.

The Importance of In-Person Work

We believe in the power of face-to-face collaboration. In-person work environments offer:

  • Enhanced team collaboration and creativity
  • Accelerated professional development through natural mentorship
  • Improved communication and exchange of ideas
  • Stronger, more cohesive team culture
