Office days a week, as postings state them
Each column counts the postings that name that many days. Where a posting gives a range, such as “2 to 3 days”, the lower figure is counted.

| 3 days | 599 |
| 4 days | 96 |
| 5 days | 193 |
193 of them (19%) ask for five days a week in the office: whatever the posting calls it, that is an office job.

What to ask before you apply
- Which days? Fixed days for the whole team, or days you choose. Fixed days mean you meet your team; chosen days can mean an empty office.
- Is it in the contract? A policy can change next year; a term in your contract is harder to change.
- What does the commute cost? Count the time and the fare for the days asked, and ask whether the employer pays any of it.
- What if you move? Ask whether the role could become remote later, and what happens if it cannot.
The remote work savings tool puts a figure on the days you would commute.
