Future workplace: office or remote?
Before you say you've found the job you want, it's important to understand whether the place where you work could make a difference. Are you the kind of person who could fit in either way or is it imperative that you work from a desk or remotely?
When the work environment is different from what we were previously used to, your habits change too and for your productivity to turn into a positive amount it is important to be a very organised person. The new reality in the job market is the remote way of working, so the 'workplace' becomes home and the employee has to manage a work-life balance.
