Safeguard - a global EOR leader - are hiring for remote roles.
Listen to Tia explain why ‘remote’ works for them.
This is what every company should do.
Not working remote..that’s a more complex question.
We’re talking about being honest.
We love they are being upfront about how their teams work. So potential team members know what they’re signing up to for before applying.
Well done Safeguard Global

Open for late application!
We're just now looking into the application data and are very happy to see the diverse ages and backgrounds applying for the course!
We've designed the course to work at scale (while still providing a learning environment that strives to connect the course participants and teachers in meaningful ways) so go ahead and apply or spread the word about the course to others!
And we hope that our new course schedule which makes the course run at 25% pace will make it fit well in parallel with most people's other activities, studies or job tasks 🙂
I also have BlueSky invitations to share! And if I don't have any, I know where to direct you to several invitation-donation efforts.
I chose to leave Twitter/X many months ago now, but to be honest I should have made the decision even earlier than that. I was reluctant to leave - over time, I had built up a network of 6000 followers, found community, and been able to extend my reach beyond the limitations of being a scholar at a primarily-undergraduate, teaching-focused institution. Twitter had, for a long time, felt like a way to democratize and open the constructed borders of academia.
But it changed. It changed as soon as ownership changed, and I suppose the smart money would have made the jump then - I DID try to find an alternative and I created an account on Mastodon, but it didn't really 'stick' for me. Most of my community had not yet moved and I found the federated structure a little challenging to navigate. I also just didn't have that habit of checking there, so days would go by before I remembered to log back in and catch up.
And then the changes at Twitter started to accelerate. The blue check system was implemented and my engagement dropped to 0, which I think clinched it for me - why tweet if no one even sees it? I knew I needed a clean break, so I accepted a BlueSky invitation and deactivated my account (and it is now gone forever). Since then, I have seen Twitter/X continue to spiral into a cesspool. I think anyone with a choice should use that choice to refuse to contribute content to that platform, because content sustains it. Users sustain it. And it is dangerous.
I'm not naïve. I grew up on the internet. I was an early adopter of LiveJournal and had community there. I joined Facebook back when you had to have a school email address. I've seen social media platforms come and go, and I know that what I like about BlueSky now likely won't last forever - it'll eventually have ads, it'll eventually (already does) have content moderation issues, it may eventually be overrun by people who ruin things for fun. But for now, it has been a place to land and I like it.
It's less of a firehose of content than Twitter was, which is actually nice. It doesn't push content at me, which means I have to seek it out, and that has meant making some new connections. I've also taken the opportunity to use the platform differently, to be more authentically myself and engage across a greater number of communities and affinity groups. I really like the ability to create, follow, and integrate specific feeds into my timeline, like the "Craftiverse" and "AcademicSky" feeds. People have even started a cute little book club!
So, all this to say: If you're looking for a Twitter alternative that is pretty good (for now), consider BlueSky. I have two codes available right now and, as I mentioned, there are several code donation efforts that collect codes and distribute them as needed.
I help #HigherEd (faculty, staff, executive leadership) integrate #ClimateAction and sustainability principles into their teaching and work. All courses are climate courses.
I have one Bluesky invite code for the first person who's interested.
