The world is freaking out right now. Thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, almost every aspect of life as we know it has been impacted, from social distancing to economic uncertainty. Yet, we have been fighting chronic illnesses and disabilities for so long that we’re all too familiar with social distancing and medical precaution. However, friends and family members are being laid off, and the world around us is a bit unnerving.

I understand these times can be challenging, and I’m here to help. My team built Chronically Capable to help our community connect with flexible work opportunities. As we see more businesses adapt to a remote work model during COVID-19, we are confident that we will be able to bring on more jobs and opportunities for you each day. I encourage you to sign up, reach out to us and share your story.

On that note, I’d love to share seven available remote work opportunities during COVID-19. Because of these uncertain times and reports of companies cutting costs, The Mighty or Chronically Capable has reached out to the companies on this list to confirm they are still hiring. Unless otherwise noted, every company here told us it was hiring remote workers at the time of publication.

1. Aha!

Aha! is a very different kind of software company. Its goal was to build a company that not only customers would love, but employees too. Aha! thinks about helping customers differently and it doesn’t have commissioned salespeople. Instead, the company’s fully-remote team works closely with customers to highlight what’s possible with the software, leading demos and answering customer requests. Aha! offers a generous salary, equity, benefits and a profit-sharing program.
