Hybrid work increases, but fully in-office roles still lead

Though fully on-site job postings remain most common in the U.S., hybrid arrangements have increased significantly over the past two years as many employers increase retention efforts. Fully remote postings have generally stabilized in that time.

Hybrid and remote trends by professional field

Looking at flexible work by profession, marketing and creative roles lead the way in offering hybrid and remote arrangements, with technology and HR close behind. Healthcare and administrative and customer support roles typically have fewer flexible opportunities.
