Searching for jobs you can do from home used to be a matter of scanning the Sunday classifieds for offers to get rich quick by stuffing envelopes.
Now, exposure to at-home employment opportunities has exploded, and a wide range of job ads are just a mouse click away. But so are the scams.
Nevertheless, there's no shortage of people who dream of beating the odds and earning a living from home.
Self-motivation, discipline, job skills and independence are key characteristics for at-home workers, says Stephanie Foster, a former medical transcriptionist who runs HomeWithTheKids.com.
Consider the below 10 careers, some rather traditional and others unexpected for interesting at-home work and good prospects.
1. Virtual assistant
2. Medical transcriptionist
3. Translator
4. Web developer/designer
5. Call center representative
6. Tech support specialist
7. Travel agent
8. Teacher
9. Writer/editor
10. Franchise owner
When considering any at-home job, put up the scam-detection radar.
Good luck.
