👋 Hey friend,
Most people keep a list of jobs they want. But the smarter move? Keep a list of companies you want to work for.
Why? Because jobs open and close fast — but companies stay. When you track the right companies, you can spot new roles the moment they go live instead of arriving late to the flood.
Why You Should Keep a “Dream Company” List — Not a Job List
1. It keeps your focus clear
When you know what kind of company you want — by size, culture, or mission — you filter out noise. Suddenly, you’re not chasing random job titles anymore.
2. It helps you act early
Most hiring teams post jobs quietly before they promote them. If you already follow their careers page or RemoteFront feed, you’ll be first to apply.
3. It builds real alignment
When you apply to a company you genuinely care about, your message sounds different. You write with energy, not desperation — and recruiters can tell.
4. It saves time long-term
Instead of restarting your search every month, your company list becomes your compass. You can check in weekly to see who’s hiring and apply strategically.
How to Start Yours
Write down 10–20 companies you admire (use RemoteFront’s company search).
Bookmark their career pages or follow them in your RemoteFront feed.
When a new role appears, apply early — and with confidence that you belong there.
