The number of remote opportunities continues to increase.

Kenneth Terrell,

If you’re looking for an opportunity to work remotely, there’s a good chance you can now find a job that fits your needs. According to a recent FlexJobs  study of job postings on their website, there was an 11 percent increase in the number of remote jobs in 2023 compared to the previous year.

Older adults could benefit directly from this boom in remote work. Their skills and experience give them the ability to operate effectively and independently outside the office. And the flexibility of working from home offers an appealing pathway toward eventual retirement.

Work from home jobs have become extremely popular.

115% more popular according to a recent study by FlexJobs and Global Workplace Analytics.

As such, it’s no surprise that the 1.8 million Americans that left their jobs between 2005 and 2017 cited greater flexibility, increased happiness, and better pay as primary factors in their decision to ditch the traditional 9-to-5 grind and work from home.

If you are self-motivated and consider yourself a go-getter, a work-from-home career may be a great option for you.

From customer service reps and social media managers, to travel agents and transcriptionists, work-from-home jobs provide the opportunity to earn a living from anywhere.

Employee Positions 

One of the easiest ways to get started working from home is to work for someone else, and there are a number of real careers you can consider.

1. Online teacher

Potential earnings: $30,000 to $40,000 per year

Schools and other educational institutions are beginning to realize the importance and role of online education. Whether you’re a licensed teacher or not, you can earn an income teaching classes online .

Demand is growing for online education solutions as a supplement to in-class schooling or, in some cases, a replacement altogether. Subjects in the highest demand are English, science, and math. Classes are usually taught via Skype, Zoom, or pre-recorded sessions.

K12 is one option for teaching online. One perk to working for the company is that your job will likely include benefits like health insurance, retirement savings accounts, and paid time off. Since you’ll be working with kids, you still need to go through the typical hiring process for a teacher: background check, reference check, interviews, etc.

If you want to supplement your teaching income or you’re not a licensed teacher, you can create courses on platforms like Outschool . With these courses, you have more flexibility in your rates, your hours, and what subjects you teach.

2. Online tutor

Potential earnings: $14 to $22 per hour

If you’d prefer a more flexible teaching job, consider tutoring through Education First or VIPKid. The service is incredibly flexible. You get to set your own hours, and there’s no lesson planning involved. They provide the lesson materials and communicate with the parents; all you need is a laptop and a desire to help teach children.

3. Transcriptionist

Potential earnings: $15 to $30 per hour, depending on experience

Transcriptionists take audio and video content and turn it into written text. It sounds simple enough, but this work requires a certain level of skill. You’ll need to know how to type efficiently and accurately. Some transcriptionists even use special equipment like a foot pedal to start and stop audio recordings.

Still, there are so many unique opportunities to land remote transcription work. If you’re a beginner, your best option is to sign up with transcription job sites like Rev or Scribie to find paying jobs that you can do on a contractor basis. You can also offer your services on Fiverr or reach out to companies and entrepreneurs to pitch them your services. For example, if you like a specific podcast, see if it needs someone to transcribe episodes.

4. Medical coder

Potential earnings: $60,000 per year

Medical coding is a popular work-from-home career field. Remote medical coders review patients’ records and services for the correct diagnosis and procedure codes so the provider can bill the patient and insurance companies for the correct amount.

You will need some training for this job, which you can find through in-person courses or an online program. Having some training or certification can help you land an entry-level role. Some companies hire remote medical coders on a contract basis or even as a part- or full-time employee.

5. Virtual nurse/telemedicine

Potential earnings: approximately $61,000 per year

If you have a nursing degree, you can work as a virtual nurse helping people over the phone or via the internet. Virtual nurses use the internet to monitor vital signs, connect with virtual command centers to communicate with doctors, advise patients online, and perform other similar duties.

You can find these jobs at hospitals and health centers and apply just like you would for a traditional nursing job.

6. Call center agent

Remote center agents do everything they would in a traditional call center: sales, telemarketing, customer service, and customer support.

You may have to handle incoming or make outgoing calls, depending on the nature of the job. Some companies that hire work-from-home agents prefer some call center experience, but most will offer training so don’t worry if you’ve never done this work before.

You can work either full- or part-time in this role.

7. Customer service representative

Potential earnings: $28,000 per year

If you know you want to work from home but have no idea where to start, customer service can be a good choice. Most companies need customer service representatives to field customer questions, concerns, and complaints; and a lot of them, such as Apple, American Express, and U-Haul, hire remote employees to perform this role.

Training is usually provided, and you’ll receive a set schedule. However, your schedule can rotate, especially if it’s a 24-hour business. Similar to call center agents, you can work either full- or part-time as a customer service representative.

8. Amazon remote employee

Potential earnings: anywhere from $10 per hour to $50,000 per year depending on the job and experience

It’s possible to make money with Amazon in a number of ways, including work-from-home positions ranging from customer service agents and technical support to data entry, or even all the way to supply chain managers.

Job responsibilities vary according to the position you’re applying to, so you’ll have to carefully and thoroughly read the job listing to get an accurate picture of what’s required. You can find open listings by visiting its Virtual Locations jobs page.

Positions can be hourly, part-time, or full-time.

9. Search engine evaluator

Potential earnings: $37,00 per year

If you’re looking for a legitimate, non-phone based remote job, consider looking for work as a search engine evaluator. In this position, you’ll spend your time evaluating results for search engines like Google, Yahoo, and Bing to help improve the overall user experience.

Web research skills, analytical abilities, and excellent communication are important for this position. Note that you typically need to pass an exam before you start working as an evaluator.

The hours are pretty flexible, but you can expect to work around 35 hours per week.

10. Data entry clerk

Potential earnings: $27,000 per year for full-time work

Data entry is a flexible entry-level work-from-home job. Companies may hire you to input data to a software system, transfer information, and update records.

It helps if you’re detail-oriented, can easily navigate spreadsheets, have strong organizational skills, and are a fast and accurate typist.

11. Insurance claims investigator

Potential earnings: $47,000-$66,000 per year for full-time work

As an insurance claims investigator, you’ll work for insurance companies to investigate and validate claims made by policyholders to protect the companies from fraud. Although you’ll primarily work from home, you might need to go into the field to conduct interviews or take pictures.

You don’t need any formal education or training, but it generally requires excellent communication, research, and interview skills. Many companies provide on-the-job training and continuing education.

12. Camp counselor

Potential earnings: $11-$17 per hour

Although typically an outdoor, in-person job, there are some remote camp counselor jobs, particularly for STEM-based camps. You’ll work with campers teaching them coding, performing science experiments, digital art, and more.

These are seasonal positions. It can be a good opportunity for college students studying to become teachers or stay-at-home parents to earn money.

13. Test proctor

Potential earnings: $12 per hour on average

Similar to an in-person proctor, a remote test proctor will verify a test taker’s ID and monitor them throughout the exam to ensure that they don’t cheat and maintain the integrity of the exam. This is typically done via a webcam, so it’s important that you have a good internet connection and a quality camera and microphone.

The hours vary depending on the company you work for and when the students schedule their exams.

Contract Positions

If you want the benefit of working for someone else but prefer the flexibility of making your own schedule, there are many ways to work from home as a contractor.

16. Freelance proofreader

Potential earnings: Approximately $50,000 per year, depending on rates, experience, number of clients, and type of project

If you’ve got a knack for grammar, can spot typos, and can fix egregious misspellings, proofreading may be an option for you. As a freelance proofreader, you’ll work for a variety of clients helping them identify errors in their written and printed content.

After finding success as a proofreader, Caitlin Pyle started to teach others how to do the same.

To see if proofreading is a good fit for you, check out her free online workshop .

17. Virtual assistant

Potential earnings: $15 to $75 per hour, depending on experience

Virtual assistants , commonly referred to as VAs, are hired to help business owners with online administrative tasks. They help with tasks like email, calendar management, social media management, transcribing calls, and managing customer service.

You can fast-track your virtual assistant job search by taking a training class that’ll teach you the skills needed to become a virtual assistant. To find your first clients, you can contact some small business owners or browse sites such as Upwork and Freelancer. You can also apply to work for virtual assistant companies that pay hourly.

Potential earnings: $30 to $500+ per assignment, depending on difficulty, experience level, subject, and the length of the material

18. Babysitter

Potential earnings: Variable based on rates, number of kids you watch, and how many hours per week you provide care

One of the most reliable and flexible ways to earn money from home, and one that you can start immediately, is by providing child care and babysitting services.

You can offer morning care services to help kids get ready for school, keep an eye on them as parents go off to work, or watch them while mom or dad runs errands. Or you can take advantage of the fact that child care centers are closed during the evenings and weekends and offer your services for those hours.

If you choose this route, decide what age group of kids you prefer to watch and create a profile on Care.com or Sittercity.com to help you find clients. You can also ask friends and neighbors if they need child care.

19. Web designer

Potential earnings: Around $50,000 per year, although you can earn more as a freelancer based on your rates, services, and number of clients

Business owners want professional looking websites for their space on the internet. If you can code and have a good eye for design, you can earn money designing websites for small businesses .

20. Social media manager

Potential earnings: $15 to $120+ per hour, depending on experience

If you’re proficient with different social media platforms, you can turn your skill into a work-from-home job by offering services like creating and scheduling posts, running ads, managing private messages, and monitoring online groups.

Creating content and engaging with fans and customers is a time-consuming task that many businesses don’t have the bandwidth to do in-house. As a result, they prefer to outsource the task. While some companies do have full-time in-house social media managers, it’s often cheaper to hire a part-time remote worker for this role. This opens up positions for work-from-home freelancers.

If you favor one platform over the others, focus on becoming an expert in that area so you can offer a specialized service.

22. Survey taker

Potential earnings: $5 to $200 per month, depending on eligibility and how many surveys you participate in

Most companies want to better understand potential customers so they can improve products and target their audience more effectively. To do that, sites pay people to take online surveys . Although not technically a job, you can make money taking surveys, and it requires no experience.

There are many different types of surveys and activities to complete. For example, in addition to regular surveys, Branded Surveys rewards users for answering daily polls, participating in challenges, referring friends, and redeeming offers you can find on their social media accounts. You’ll get your first 100 points when you sign up. Once you reach 1,000, you can cash out for gift cards, PayPal cash, or direct deposit (U.S. users only).

23. Facebook ads specialist

Potential earnings: $47,000 per year for full-time work, but freelancers can earn more or less depending on experience, rates, number of clients, and length of ad campaigns

You’ll help local businesses grow while simultaneously building your own business.

It’s not difficult to get started as a Facebook ads specialist, but enrolling in a program like the FB Side Hustle Course  can help. Courses like this will show you things like how to set up the Facebook ad system and find paying clients.

Potential earnings: $0 to $150,000+ per month.

How much you’ll earn depends on what you sell, how often you make a sale, and how aggressively you market your products. You can work as many or as few hours as you prefer.

You can sign up to work with a credible company like OnlineVerdict. The amount of hours you work is entirely up to you.

If you complete training through a program like The Travel Institute, you’ll learn more skills that can help you better serve clients. You can even consider specializing in specific kinds of travel like cruises or Disney World vacations.

Instead of charging a fee, you’ll earn a commission when your clients book their travel through you. The deals tend to be pretty competitive, making it easy to convince clients to work with you.

Where to Find Full-Time Work-From-Home Jobs

Finding a work-from-home job is similar to finding a traditional job. To get started, you just need to know where to look.

Job boards and sites

If you’re looking for a more traditional job, start by looking on sites like ZipRecruiter , Indeed.com, Glassdoor, or even LinkedIn’s job board. You can filter your searches by type of work, location, hours, and even specific jobs. For instance, if you want to work as a virtual nurse, you can visit ZipRecruiter and type “telemedicine” and your location into the search feature and you’ll get a listing of all available positions with real companies in your area.

Freelancers should consider using sites like Upwork, Freelancer, or Fiverr to find clients. You can also browse job boards like the ones found on ProBlogger and Mediabistro. If you need to create a profile, make sure it’s as complete as possible and includes a way for prospective clients to contact you.

Company websites

If you’re interested in working for a specific company, visit its website and search for its “careers” or “job openings” page. That should provide you with the application process, salary information, and what positions are currently open. If it’s a smaller company, you might want to reach out to the owner if nothing is listed on the website. The website may not have been updated to reflect current openings.

If you work in a specific industry, do some research to find out what companies in that field hire for the job you’re interested in. Companies like SYKES and Appen hire search engine evaluators, and SigTrack, Capital Typing, and DionData Solutions hire data entry clerks.

You can also find work-from-home jobs by cold calling or emailing businesses in your area, friends who are business owners, or connecting with businesses on social media. Facebook has networking groups for most professions, as does LinkedIn, and if you have a local chamber of commerce or small business group, consider joining them as well.

Don’t rule out job fairs or other types of in-person hiring events. You never know what opportunities you might come across.

Watch Out for Work-from-Home Job Scams

The rise of the internet has created opportunities that didn’t even exist just a few years ago. High demand for remote workers, especially in the tech industry, has led to the largest voluntary exodus from the in-person workforce in almost twenty years.

If you’re not thrilled about commuting to the office or if you’re looking for a part-time gig, there are plenty of legitimate work-from-home jobs to choose from.

However, some people have taken advantage of the common desire to work remotely. For each legitimate work-from-home job out there, there is likely a scam to match it. Jobs that ask you to post ads online, stuff envelopes, or assemble products from your home are all probably scams.

It’s important to know how to recognize these work-from-home scams so you don’t waste your money or time. If something sounds too good to be true, it likely is.

15 Jobs You Can Do From Home—and How to Get Hired ASAP

Even before the COVID-19 pandemic—if you can remember that far back—remote work was a growing trend. A 2019 report from Upwork predicted that by 2028, 73% of all departments would have remote workers—which would have been an increase of 38% in 10 years. But then, COVID hit, and by 2021, the number of people who primarily worked from home had tripled in just two years .

Both employers and employees have realized that in many cases, “You don’t need to be in the same geographic location as the office or even in the same time zone,” says Mark Silverman, CEO of Amava , a member website that connects people with work-from-home jobs and volunteer opportunities.

Parents, caregivers, and people with chronic illnesses and disabilities are often in the market for work-from-home roles, as are people who are simply looking for more flexible hours or the ability to work from anywhere. Some of these roles are part-time and may require you to find work with multiple clients at once while others are full-time roles.

If you’re hoping to work from home, there’s a wealth of jobs available, requiring a variety of skills and experience levels—and many of them pay salaries comparable to full-time, on-site jobs. Here are 15 roles you should consider—and where you can find open positions.

1. Customer care or customer service representative

Average pay : $15.38/hour

Customer care or customer service representatives answer questions, solve problems, and help with orders over the phone or digitally, and it’s one of the easiest work-from-home jobs to break into. However, these positions aren’t as flexible as other work-from-home jobs. For instance, if your shift is 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., you’re expected to be on call for that entire time. However, you may be able to work shifts outside of traditional business hours since companies may need to provide support to clients in different time zones.

2. Website tester

Average pay : $25/hour

Website testers assess websites and web applications for quality and usability on multiple devices, including desktops, laptops, tablets and cell phones.

Get hired:  Find website testing jobs on sites including UserTesting , and Userlytics .

3. Online educator

Average pay : $47,687/year

You could make as much as $100 to $200 an hour for one-on-one instruction.

Get hired: You can sign up with agencies such as Rev and Upwork to find captioner jobs or you can look for openings at specific companies such as Caption Media Group or 3Play Media .

Average medical transcriptionist pay : $17.15/hour

Average pay : $49,740/year

8. Online therapist

Average pay : $82,435/year

Online therapists provide mental health support in real time through digital platforms such as video conferencing, phone calls, or text messaging.

Get hired: Find remote therapist jobs on The Muse .

9. Proofreader

Average pay : $19.41/hour

A proofreader ensures written content is free of grammatical, spelling, punctuation, and formatting errors. If you have attention to detail and are familiar with the AP Stylebook and the Chicago Manual of Style, you can find proofreading work for advertising agencies, websites, public relations firms, and textbook writers.

4 best tips for landing a work-from-home job in 2023

With an increasing number of people seeking flexible hours and roles, the application process is getting more competitive . There are also online scams posing as work-from-home opportunities that you need to beware of. Here’s what you need to do to land a remote job and avoid the scams:

Apply quickly.

The key to being hired for one of these work-from-home positions is to apply as soon as the position is posted, says Charlette Beasley of Fit Small Business, a digital resource for small business owners. “It’s not unusual for 100 to 150 people to respond to an ad within the first hour it’s posted,” she says.

Make your work-from-home skills shine.

Employees who work from home need to be self-starters and highly motivated. So make sure that when you apply, you highlight those qualities and any other soft skills that show your ability to work independently, Silverman says. Call attention to your talent for keeping track of your own productivity and proactively asking for help, he says. For instance, your cover letter might say, “When I encounter challenges, I seek out solutions rather than waiting for the problem to solve itself,” and then include an example.

Focus on why you’ll be good at the job—not who you are.

Although many of the candidates who apply for work-from-home positions are caregivers and parents, there is no reason to focus on that fact when you respond to job postings, says Sharon Koifman, president of Distant Job , a remote recruitment agency in Quebec, Canada. Instead, highlight why you’re the best person to fill the role from the company’s perspective. “The reason companies hire remotely is because they can’t find the talent locally, they are trying to save money, or they are looking for someone who is exceptionally good at their job,” he says.

So if you’re applying to be a web developer, your application needs to convey that you’re the best web developer they can hire and explain why, Koifman says. For instance, your letter could say, “I’ve designed more than 50 websites for a variety of clients and I can turn projects around quickly with little oversight and direction.”

Be wary of scams

Before you apply for a position be sure that it’s a legitimate online job with an actual company. Even if it’s a company you’ve never heard of, you should be able to find information about the firm and look up reviews of the company online, Beasley says. In other words, you want to make sure the organization has a digital footprint beyond something they create themselves (like a LinkedIn page or website).

Most importantly, you should never have to pay money to apply for a position or to begin a job, Silverman says. Make sure you understand how you will be paid and how often, he says. And trust your gut. If you think something doesn’t sound right, don’t move ahead with the position.

20 Work at Home Companies With an A+ Rating With the BBB

Author: Holly Reisem Hanna

May 22, 2024 144 Comments

If you’re looking for work at home companies with an A+ rating with the BBB (Better Business Bureau), keep reading. We’ve done the research for you!

When searching for remote jobs, you’re bombarded with information. Often, it isn’t easy to decipher what’s legit and what’s not. While I can offer advice on how to avoid employment scams and where to find  legitimate work , many job seekers still feel uneasy applying for remote jobs.

The Better Business Bureau is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to help consumers find trustworthy companies. On its website, consumers can read reviews, file complaints, rate companies, and report scam operations. This is why researching work at home companies on its website is a practical place to begin your remote job search.

The BBB has a couple of ways of ranking companies. The first model is its A+ through F grading system, which is given out by the Better Business Bureau itself. The second rating is from consumers, and it is a 1—to 5-star rating, with 5 stars being the best. The last distinction is BBB accreditation. This means that a company has paid to be a BBB member and adheres to its ethical business practices. 

To help take some of this uncertainty out of your remote job search, I’ve compiled a list of companies with an A+ rating on the BBB website.

Adecco  is another staffing agency where you can find legitimate work from home opportunities. To find the work at home positions on their website, select the remote jobs toggle on the left-hand sidebar. Adecco receives an  A+ rating  with the BBB.

Adecco has remote job openings in the following areas:

• Hospitality
• Engineering and Technology
• Creative and Marketing
• Call Center and Customer Service
• Retail and Sales
• Accounting and Finance
• Education, HR, and Training
• Office, Clerical, Data Entry, and Administrative
• Business Operations

Alorica  is another work at home company with an  A+ rating  with the BBB. They hire English-speaking and bilingual customer service and tech support reps. Alorica offers paid training, flexible schedules, and benefits. You should have a high school diploma or GED and one year of customer service experience.

Not only is  Apple  a leading name in the tech industry, but they also have an  A+ rating  with the Better Business Bureau! Apple hires for a wide variety of work from home positions, with the most popular role being their at-home agents who help customers troubleshoot issues with their new products and devices.

They also have many remote corporate roles available in areas like business operations, sales, software, design, and more. Full-time positions come with a wide variety of benefits, including all the equipment you need to get your job done.

Asurion  hires remote workers for customer service, supply chain, and a variety of corporate roles. To find the work at home jobs on their careers page, look for the positions that say remote or WAH for location. Customer service applicants must live in one of the following states: AL, AK, AZ, AR, FL, GA, ID, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, MI, MS, MO, MT, NE, NM, NC, ND, OH, OK, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, VA, WV, WI, or WY. Asurion has both part-time and full-time positions, with the latter receiving benefits. You can view their  A+ BBB rating  here.

The hours are flexible, but individuals should be available during regular office hours. You’ll be working as an independent contractor in these roles, and a bachelor’s degree is preferred. BELAY hires in all states except CA, MT, NJ, NY, and PA, and they maintain an  A+ rating  with the BBB.

Bold  which owns  FlexJobs , not only maintains an  A+ rating  with the BBB, but they also have accreditation with the organization. Besides hosting many remote and flexible jobs on their job board, Bold hires remote workers from the US and Poland.

Positions include:

• Account Executives
• Sales Development Specialists
• Career Coaches and Resume Writers
• Job Researchers

Most of the positions that I’ve seen require prior experience and are for full-time work, but they come with many benefits and perks.

Not only does Cambly have an  A+ rating  with the Better Business Bureau, but their remote job openings can be done on a flexible schedule anywhere in the world. With  Cambly , you’ll help individuals practice their English language skills. No experience is needed; however, you will need to be a native English speaker with your own computer, webcam, and high-speed internet access.

What Else to Review Besides Better Business Bureau Ratings

Having a high BBB rating is just one indicator of a work from home company’s reputation. However, it’s not the only thing you should consider. Many legit companies don’t have ratings on the site, or they may even have poor ratings. You need to look at the big picture when searching for reputable work at home jobs.

Another way to  avoid scammers  is to look at reviews on  Glassdoor.com . On Glassdoor, employees can leave anonymous reviews about companies, so you can see if a company has a positive work environment and mission. You can also learn about hidden fees, salaries, and employment benefits.

If you need help organizing, tracking, and managing your job search, check out our  Work From Home Career Planner . This planner will help you organize, manage, and track your job search efforts so that you can easily identify and avoid work at home scams.

Lastly, if you think you are being targeted by a scammer or if you’ve fallen for a work at home scam, you can report it using the  BBB Scam Tracker  or directly to the  FTC .

Do you know of any other work at home companies with an A+ rating on the BBB? Drop us note; we’d love to hear about it.

I have a lot of sales experience but I’m looking for a work from home job that doesn’t require cold calling/telemarketing. Perhaps something in the data entry field.

Hi Heather,

August 28, 2018 at 9:03 am

I want to sell my Shami kababs from home how can I please tell me

May 11, 2018 at 6:27 pm

I worked 24 years in Surgical Pathology at a hospital. While working in Pathology, I was the Adm Secretary, Receptionist, Pathology Transcriptionist, and Laboratory Assistant. When the drs I worked for retired, I was offered a position at a Same Day Surgical Center. I was employed as the Pain Management Clinic Coordinator. When the physicians moved their pain management practices to their office clinics, I was offered a full time position at an Orthopedics Clinic working the Front Desk primarily for 1 of the orthopedic physicians. There were 8 providers at this orthopedic clinic. When we weren’t busy assisting patients, we assisted answering a multi-line phone system. I worked at the orthopedic clinic for approximately 2 years. The clinic completely split up and I found myself laid off for the first time in my life. I couldn’t find full time work in the medical field. I registered on the Idaho Dept of Labor Registry. We were required to take an online 1 hour exam for each position we were applying for. I was called, interviewed, and hired by the President’s Office at the University. I had worked in this position until Oct. 20, 2017. I was hospitalized for a week with pneumonia. I developed serious complications and have just recently been released to work again. I lost my job bc I was gone from work for approx 6 months. I lost my health insurance, which is so valuable. FMLA only covers holding your job for 12 weeks. The President’s Office had to replace me due to being gone from work so long. I am starting off at square 1 yet again. We require both of our incomes to pay bills and make ends meet. Now that I have lost my health insurance, it will cost us $603 a month to put me on my husband’s insurance, which will devastate our budget. I am finding the employment situation the same, if not worse, as before I was hired by the University. Experience is not valued. There are very few businesses in this area that will hire full time employees. They hire 2 part time employees so the company will not have to pay the insurance benefits. Are there any reputable work from home sites that will employ medical transcriptionists? I feel this would be the skill that would transfer to be done at home the easiest. Do any of these companies pay health insurance benefits? What is the rate of pay (per hour, per line)? I’m sorry I’m asking so many questions! What type of equipment would I need? We have Windows 10 and Century Link WiFi. Do you have to pay any money up front for their equipment? Due to our financial circumstances, paying any money upfront would be next to impossible! Would there be any other work at home jobs you would recommend that I could make sufficient money to pay living expenses? Any information you could share with me would be greatly appreciated! Thank you very much for your time and efforts.

May 14, 2018 at 8:08 am

I’m sorry to hear about your challenges.

Here is an in-depth article about Medical Transcription Jobs: https://www.theworkathomewoman.com/medical-transcription/

Most positions within the field are independent contractor positions — so no benefits. You can find MT jobs locally in doctor’s offices and hospitals, but what I hear from others in the MT field is that most companies are using transcription software and that MTs are becoming obsolete. You may want to look into general transcription jobs instead: https://www.theworkathomewoman.com/wah-transcriptionist/

But again, most of these jobs are going to be for independent contractors.

Check out these two posts — they cover remote jobs that offer benefits:

Hello Holly I have signed up with InBox dollars. Com on inbox. This site loves to ask me about medical condition a although the questions/surveys are an option this type of survey is manipulative in nature and is against the privacy act/law, esp.

Yes, FlexJobs is a paid membership site. But they hand screen all of their jobs, so you will never run into a scam.

25 companies hiring now for fully remote jobs in 2024.

When searching for remote work, ensure that the company provides holistic wellbeing and career ... [+] support as well

Within the United States, the professional, scientific, and computer-related occupations have the highest shares of job postings for hybrid roles, and most importantly, fully remote work, according to recent findings from a National Bureau of Economic Research study .

Across these sectors can be found companies who have taken innovative approaches to hiring and proactive employee retention, ensuring employee wellbeing is consistently upheld, including fully remote, hybrid options, unlimited PTO, and even offering access to meditation, yoga, and wellness classes.

Some of these employers have been highlighted by FlexJobs as being most active in posting the highest number of remote jobs, hiring fully remote and flexible roles since the start of the year.

The industries represented by these employers span the most popular industries for remote work, mirroring the sectors listed in the NBER study, such as healthcare, consulting, technology, finance, and social media.

They also are highly diverse and span a wide range of career paths and interests, so you are sure to find something suitable for your career goals:

Here are 25 from their full list, and some noteworthy highlights for a few of these employers:

Best High-Yield Savings Accounts Of 2024

Best 5% interest savings accounts of 2024, 1. robert half international.

Robert Half, a recruitment agency and HR consulting firm, is listed as being the one of the "Best Workplaces for Parents" in 2023, was included in Fortune's "Most Admired Companies" in 2024, and provides strong career development support and an almost four-star rating on Glassdoor.

Veeva is an international cloud-computing company specifically focused on the life sciences industry. They also have a work-from-anywhere policy , while investing in their global offices for occasional meetings.

AECOM is an infrastructure consulting firm, covering several projects on a multinational level, including large-scale construction management, urban planning, and engineering. The employer was also listed as one of the Most Admired Companies.

4. CVS Health

A household name for many, CVS Health is the second-largest healthcare company, being beaten only by UnitedHealth Group. It provides health solutions including CVS Pharmacy, Aetna Health, and CVS Speciality, with associated apps. CVS Health expresses commitment to diversity including employees with disabilities, and is transparent about its hiring process on its website.

HubSpot, a leading provider in digital marketing, sales and customer service tools, training, and support, is based internationally and takes a very flexible, innovative approach to employee location, providing three options for candidates when they join the company. This makes it very attractive for those who desire fully remote work, as well as those who wish to come into the office from time to time.

All roles are eligible to be fully remote, however you have the option of also selecting their flex plan (coming into the local office more than twice a quarter), or their office-based plan if you would prefer in-person work and the office is local to you.

Some of the other employers listed who are hiring and support fully remote and flexible working for their roles, include:

• Creative Financial Staffing (CFS)
• LHH – Lee Hecht Harrison
• UnitedHealth Group
• Prime Therapeutics
• Thermo Fisher Scientific
• Motion Recruitment
• Insight Global
• Circle Internet Financial
• Token Metrics

Many of these employers not only offer remote jobs, but they are proactive about providing you with the opportunity to thrive while working from home, so you do not feel isolated, and to ensure that your role is fully supported so you can deliver your best work. For example, some employers such as HubSpot provide a stipend for working from home, in addition to a Slack hub and extra training resources to enable you to thrive in your job.

Some employers offer a WFH stipend and flexible location options as part of their fully remote ... [+] policy

When searching for employers who are hiring for fully remote jobs, remember to consider the bigger picture. Is remote an afterthought, something that they've shoved into their policy as a way to attract talent, but hasn't been fully thought through? Or is remote working part of a more extensive employee support and development package, in which your wellbeing and professional growth is holistically championed?

Work on final phase of mcdonald complex continues.

McDONALD — Work is continuing on the final phase of the athletic / stadium complex, which includes a new concession stand and restrooms.

The project is expected to be completed before the first home varsity football game Sept. 6.

This is Phase 5 of the project and work is being done by Murphy Contracting Company.

The board previously approved the transfer of $400,000 from the general fund to the athletic complex fund for Phase 5.

At its meeting Wednesday, the board approved change orders for the project, including revised floor covering and painting costs, installation of stainless-steel countertops for the concession stand and powder-coated awnings. It will total $13,178.

Superintendent Kevin O’Connell said the additions will create a longer life span for the countertops and floors.

“The project is on track,” he said. “It is exciting to see what has gotten done.”

O’Connell said as work is being done at the stadium, a large section of the high school’s flat roof will be replaced starting in mid-July.

“A little over 50% of the high school flat roof is being repaired,” he said.

According to O’Connell, work will start with a section of roof over the art room. The last part of the project will be the piece of roof over the gymnasium in the event the project is not done before the 2024-25 school year begins.

The board had previously approved an agreement with Boak and Sons Inc. at $391,506 for replacement and repairs of the flat roof.

ASSISTANT ATHLETIC DIRECTORS

In other business, the board approved an additional position of assistant athletic director for the 2024-25 year at $3,500.

There is currently an athletic director and another assistant athletic director.

O’Connell said there are more varsity sports including track and volleyball that require an additional person to help. He said the district is now hosting track meets at the new track which it previously did not do.

“This will be an extra set of hands to help at the sporting events,” he said.

Neither assistant positions have been filled.

The board also approved allowing O’Connell to employ substitute bus drivers when it is deemed to be an emergency situation.

The substitute bus drivers will be employed from a Trumbull County school district. Pay will be the same rate they make at their full-time school district.

“We will do this as a last resort,” O’Connell said. “Many districts are having trouble getting substitute bus drivers.”

In other action, the board:

•   Approved paying McDonald police officers $31.25 per hour for campus patrol at the two schools. There will be one officer per day at the schools.

•   Approved teacher Pam Ross as drone racing instructor at $433 per year. This is the third year of the drone program.

•   Heard from O’Connell on plans to offer a career exploration class for seventh and eighth graders for the 2025-26 year.

•   Approved a transportation agreement with the Trumbull County Educational Service Center and Community Bus Service to transport six students to other school districts where they receive services.

•   Approved the high school band to attend band camp July 21 to 26 at Slippery Rock University.
