If you've ever dreamed
of getting up in the morning, grabbing yourself a cup of coffee
and sitting down to work in your pyjamas, then the links on these
pages could help you. It IS a reality. I have been working
from home for the past five years as a medical transcriptionist.
Using the power of technology and communications, telecommuting
is becoming the way of the future. Many of the companies and
websites listed here offer a free service in helping you find a
telecommuting job. Others offer free training courses and
still others offer help and articles for the telecommuter or for
those interested in telecommuting.
Some of
them do require a fee for their services, but others, such as Workaholics4Hire, offer a huge free
database of telecommuting jobs daily for you to search through.
Some of the "dream" jobs include word processing,
data entry, craft work, web development, internet research and medical
transcription - to name just a few. Take your time and check
out the links, you'll be sure to find something of interest.
(Although I have tried my best to ensure that all of these
companies offer genuine telecommuting work and are not "scam-artists",
I can't guarantee 100% that this is the case. Please use common
sense and due caution when deciding whether or not to pay for a
service.) |
