In this episode of the Dietitian Boss podcast, Libby Rothchild, founder of Dietitian Boss, engages in a conversation with Stacy Dunn, MS, RDN, founder of Nutrition Jobs and Dietitian Salaries—to explore the growing demand for remote dietitian jobs. Stacey brings over 30 years of experience in the field and offers empowering insights into how dietitians can thrive in today’s evolving job market.

Whether you're a new graduate, a career changer, or a seasoned professional eyeing a flexible role, this episode offers a goldmine of practical advice and motivational insight. From resume tweaks to embracing AI, Stacey reminds us that the sky's the limit in the world of dietetics—if you’re willing to innovate and show your value.

Bio: 
Stacey Dunn-Emke, MS, RDN is a Registered Dietitian and the Founding Owner of NutritionJobs, a career portal for dietitians and nutrition professionals and DietitianSalaries.com, an anonymous salary survey tool. She is the author of The Dietetic Resume Guide and specializes in boosting professional opportunities for dietitians, students, and interns, with jobs, coaching and courses on Creating a Modern Winning Dietetic Resume, An Optimized LinkedIn Profile, and Job Interview Prep. Stacey regularly hosts LinkedIn Live Events, spotlighting dietitian careers and modern employment opportunities, aiming to build confidence and knowledge. Stacey brings her vast work experience to the dietetic career coaching table, where she has worked as a Clinical Dietitian, Nutrition Writer, Outpatient Dietitian, Clinical Nutrition Manager, and Research Dietitian with Dr. Dean Ornish. She has appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show and MSNBC TV. She is a frequent speaker, including for The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, The California Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, and Harvard Medical School. She has served on the Board of the Bay Area Dietetic Association, including President-Elect, was awarded Outstanding Dietitian, Outstanding Dietitian of the Year, and Recognized Young Dietitian. She lives with her family in San Francisco.

The flexibility and freedom of remote jobs are appealing, but don’t overlook the value of in-person roles early in your career.

In-person work builds observational skills, offers spontaneous mentorship, and fosters organic networking—“curbside consults” can be career-changing.

Employers look for self-motivation, tech confidence, and effective communication in remote candidates.

Keep a “work journal” to track your impact and results—it’s a game-changer during interviews or performance reviews.

Avoid simply listing job duties. Instead, highlight accomplishments using action verbs and quantify your success.

Make your resume—and your LinkedIn—speak to your impact, not just your job description.

Rather than fearing competition from well-funded companies, dietitians should see them as free PR for the profession.

These companies raise awareness of what RDs can do—opening more doors for all dietitians.

Emerging niches include AI, brain health, fertility, sustainability, and even pet nutrition.

Inspiration is everywhere—listen to podcasts, scroll through Reddit, or simply chat at your kid’s next pediatrician visit.
