Sanpete County alum finds remote job with Hallows & Co

Julie Anderson

"I took the Certified Remote Work Professional certificate course with the intent to convert my current job to remote. That didn't work out as the company I worked for was sold. Because of the foundation that I had from taking in the class I was confident that I would be able to find a remote job. And I am excited to report that I am now a remote worker! I have been hired as a 100% remote worker with Hallows and Company. After 24 years of going into an office every day, I now get to work from my home office. 

As a graduate of the Certified Remote Work Professional certificate course, I would encourage anyone who is looking for this type of work to take the course. For me, this course was a life saver. As part of the course, I was exposed to and work with the platforms, tools and programs necessary to be part of the remote workforce. Every day I use something from my class that helps me. Even though I thought I had a handle on Zoom, I have found a few quirks when you remote in. I can already see that I will have to implement the work life balance strategies we learned. At the time, I have to admit that I didn't feel like this would be a problem, but in real life it is easy to blur the line. Thank you to everyone involved on every level of this program. I have been able to be successful because of you."
