by Q: I’m relocating to the Boston region this September. I’m starting to look for a job here and there. My parents are becoming older, therefore I need to move closer to them. Fortunately, I spent years living in Massachusetts, so I am familiar with the most of the towns and cities. I don’t want to talk about my parents because I feel that my tale is confusing. That seems like private information, and I don’t want a potential employer to assume that I’ll be absent a lot due to my parents’ potential care needs. My sister and brother will assist with the caring as well. Until I find a home or apartment, I shall stay at my sister’s house.
How does a remote job search work?
Although it can be difficult, it is possible to search for a job from a distance. Here are some pointers. The majority of these suggestions would also work in other American cities.

The following advice could help your search:
Looking for a job from a distance is more difficult than looking locally. But you are capable of success.
I also concur with you regarding bringing up your parents. I believe you can cover that subject in greater detail. I believe you may say that Boston is your hometown and that you are coming back to be nearer to your family rather than going into specifics.
Additionally, you should state that you have expected that you will cover the cost of the move’s relocation. Some firms will pay you, but if you expect them to cover this extra cost, you’re probably going to be passing up some prospects.
