Creating
Clerical Work From Home)-
I have always made it clear that online clerical
work and/or data processing/ typing or any type of administrative assistant type
work is VERY hard to find in a "telecommuting" or "work at home" format. These
jobs are limited and filled quickly. If your goal is online clerical work - then
definitely keep your eye on the prize, it's not hopeless.
Below are a few companies that I've heard of that
hire for online clerical work positions. When applying make sure you meet their
qualifications. If you happen to need more training -- then do so, and come back
later and apply. It's better than applying and not having the clerical skills.
Your resume will go into the trash more than likely.
As I find new online clerical work companies, I will add them to this page. You
might want to bookmark it, so that you can come back to it easily.
I make an adamant effort to find more resources.
I want that $40,000 a year clerical work from home job! I am sure it's
part-time. I am so sure it offers benefits. And I'm positive it will be
something very easy to do!
You can wake up now!! Those jobs.. well, when you find one, let me know!
If would be nice if that type of job was easy to obtain. Of course for that to
happen we would all need to have the right skills, equipment and there would
need to be plenty of those jobs to go around. It's just not the case.
Finding clerical work that you can do from home is going to take A LOT of effort
on your part. It's gonna be a job getting the job! In the years I have worked at
home and interviewed people of all kinds, doing all kinds of telecommuting work.
About 95% of these people created the job they do.
Creating Clerical Work From Home
What does this mean?
What kind of skills do you have? Just owning a
computer and typing in chat rooms or emails to your sister do not constitute
"real" skills. How are your actual clerical skills shaping up? How fast can you
accurately type? What desk top publishing skills do you have? Are you trained in
transcription? What about copywriter, editor, proofreader? Do you have training
or education in those skills?
The advice I received from many working at home in the clerical field,
most said they contacted small businesses in their area and offered low cost
outsourcing for odds and ends. Here are a few ideas of what I came across
interviewing people.
-One mother of three kids (all under the age of 6!), makes confirmation calls
for a vets office each day. Each evening they fax over the following days
appointments and she calls and confirms and faxes the list back to the vets
office before 5:00.
-One mother of twins does paralegal work from her home for a small law firm in
her town. She does it all from her small home office around her children's naps.
Both of these women contacted the business or company they now work for and
initiated employment. They didn't just randomly mail out their resume or call
people. They honed their skills and and decisively went after what they felt
they were qualified for, would enjoy and was flexible enough for them.
Many telecommuting jobs pay minimum wage. They are not usually high-power,
high-demand positions, therefore they don't pay top dollar. Most are part-time.
So--if you're looking for around $100 extra a week -- you can typically find
something geared toward that range. But don't balk! There have been many times
in my life where $400 a month would have made a whole lot of difference for me
and my family!

Put out feelers before you up and quit your job. Make sure you've researched
what type of work and where you think you can get that type of work before hand.
Make sure your resume is fabulous and nothing less! Have a skeleton cover letter
ready too. You want to personalize each cover letter to the specific company or
business that you are approaching for work. It's tacky to have a vanilla cover
letter that looks like a form letter.
If possible try to take classes to update your skills BEFORE you leave your
current employer. This will make your resume fresher and more current. And
speaking of your current employer -- have you approached him/her about
telecommuting? Could it be an option if you can prove the logistics of it will
not impede your performance?
Working at home is becoming cost savvy for many businesses. Make sure you've
exhausted that option with your current company before you jump ship. It might
just open the door where you thought it wasn't possible.
Top notch clerical skills are certainly a great asset to any business or
company. Real estate agents are always looking for assistance, especially one
that is professional and timely with the help they need.
Bid on clerical and personal assistant jobs at eLance! This is a great way to
get your foot in the door and start earning some cash.
There are also typing jobs (REAL typing jobs) on eLance that you can bid on.
I've talked to over a dozen people that have had success with eLance. They've
been around forever, have a great reputation and weed out the wannabes from the
real deal by having people become members. That way serious job seekers and
serious employers are all you'll find!
