Remote Job Location Checker Extension
As I searched for remote jobs without location restrictions on LinkedIn, I found it time-consuming to scroll through each job post and check for location constraints. To save time and streamline the process, I developed the Remote Job Location Checker Chrome extension. This tool quickly identifies if a job is location-restricted, allowing for a more efficient job search. I decided to make it available online, hoping it would help others facing the same challenge.
### Steps to Use the Extension:
1. **Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store.**
2. **Search for jobs on LinkedIn's job search page.** The extension will automatically add a label to each job post: \"Remote From Anywhere\" or \"Location Restricted\".
3. **Click on any job in the job list on the left side.** The label will help you easily determine if the job allows remote work from any location.
