desire to work anywhere and any time, but when it comes to hiring a good remote worker — Chan said she has become"much more sophisticated" with the process.
While it seems rather self-explanatory that a remote worker should be able to communicate well virtually using apps like Slack, email or Zoom, Chan said that from her experience, not everyone fares well in that department. Chan stressed that a good virtual communicator should be able to"ask for help and self-report problems" too.
A remote worker who is not accountable would be unreachable for hours or even all day,"miss their deadlines but not communicate a change in plans to their supervisor," Chan added.
