When I started working from home there weren’t many job positions to choose from. It was either a sales job, customer service, or telemarketing. Not really what you would call ‘options’ right?
But it was that or doing side hustles like completing online surveys or data entry jobs. I did those too. But I was looking for a long-term work-from-home job and those were my only options at the time.
Anyway, that was back in 2007. A long, long time ago! Thirteen years later now there are different types of jobs for remote workers. Just look at job search sites for remote work like ZipRecruiter and FlexJobs*.
And anyone who is looking for a remote job in fields other than sales and customer service can definitely find one.
For example, Bankrate shared the best remote jobs. And here are the jobs that made the top 10 list.
- Virtual Assistant
- Medical transcriptionist
- Translator/interpreter
- Web developer/designer
- Call center representative
- Tech support specialist
- Travel agent
- Teacher/tutor
- Writer/editor
- Franchise owner
