I have been a part of the work at home job force for a few years now, and I’ve found a number of websites and blogs that list remote jobs for people who want to work at home. Working at is more popular now than it was when I started and has even become a necessity in our economy. So sites like these are a super help for searching for work that can be done from home.
By regularly checking work at home job boards and following work at home bloggers, finding legitimate work at home jobs is not difficult. I have had quite a bit of success in finding jobs and opportunities to earn extra cash on the side by being regularly dialed into the work at home world.
Job Search Sites
The best places to begin looking for work at home jobs are job search sites. While job sites are generally known for listing in-person types of positions, you can now find many work from home jobs listed as well. Some job sites are even dedicated exclusively to posting only remote jobs. While many of the jobs found on these sites will be customer service related or phone-based, there are a variety of other home-based careers also available in education, IT, writing, and general business administration.
To search on a job site, just enter the type of job you are looking for and/or enter remote, work at home, or work from home in the search box in order to see those specific listings. Some job sites will allow you to set up email alerts for certain types of jobs. Make sure to check job websites on a regular basis and pay close attention to location restrictions in the job descriptions.
Here is a list of the best job sites to check out:
1. Glassdoor
Though it is best known for its database of company reviews and ratings, Glassdoor also posts millions of current job listings regularly. These listings include many remote opportunities as well. You can sign up for email alerts for new job openings in which you are interested.
2. Indeed
It is primarily known as an in-person job search site, but Indeed has a huge listing of work at home jobs. To find them, type “remote” in the “where” box. The results will include many location-based remote jobs but will provide a lot of “work anywhere” jobs too.
3. Jobspresso
From their website, “Jobspresso is the easiest way to find high-quality remote jobs in tech, marketing, customer support and more. 100% of our jobs are hand-picked, manually reviewed and expertly curated.” Some of the jobs listed are available worldwide.
4. Monster
Another site primarily known as an in-person job search site, Monster has been around longer than every site listed here. To find remote job listings, use the terms “work at home” or “work from home” and/or use “remote” as the location. Make note of any location restriction for each listing.
5. Power to Fly
This platform was launched to connect women job seekers to Fortune 500 companies like Google and Microsoft as well as startups. The website lists jobs for conventional brick-and-mortar companies as wells as remote jobs.
6. Remote.io
From the website: “Our mission is to build the easiest way for digital nomads and the location independents to find meaningful and rewarding careers. We hope to be part of the remote workforce revolution by connecting skilled workers with reputable companies.”
7. Remote OK
The Remote OK platform lists a variety of remote jobs from around the world and refers to workers as digital nomads.
