Summary

We're Zapier, a 100% remote company since 2011, offering automation solutions for tedious tasks in web apps, connecting them with automated workflows called Zaps. We help people make their work life easier by automating repeatable, boring processes that happen regularly. To survive and thrive as a remote worker, you need to set a routine, stay focused, resist the urge to become a hermit, manage your to-do list, cut distractions in chat tools like Slack, build social time in your day, monitor productivity without micromanaging, keep staff motivated, organized, and engaged with each other, and maintain work-life balance by setting boundaries and automating tactics for avoiding burnout. Our solutions include integrating with Zoom/GoToMeeting/Google Hangouts Chat, running effective remote meetings, and finding balance when work, home, and family are present all the time.
