How to start working from home!

i recently got my first ever wfh job in september 2024. I can’t lie it was definitely super hard to land one, especially because i had no experience working from home. What i can say is be patient and take your time, it’s not an easy thing to come across. But here is what i did to get my job.

Steps:

1. Think about what type of wfh job you’re looking for ( non-phone, inbound, outbound, etc)

2. Think about if you’re going to need equipment or if you’ll be trying to find a job that supplies equipment

3. Review over your resume and tweak it to align with whatever job you are going to be applying for

4. Join facebook groups. ( I know it sounds ridiculous but there are so many facebook groups that post current listing of work from jobs hiring)

5. Once you join those facebook groups APPLY, APPLY, APPLY. make sure to keep track of what jobs you apply for so you can follow up with them.

It took me months to land my job don’t get discouraged just try to stay positive 🤎

... Read moreFinding a remote job can be daunting, but with the right approach, you can increase your chances of success. Consider exploring various types of work-from-home positions that are suited to your skills and preferences, such as non-phone roles or those requiring minimal equipment. Make sure your resume effectively highlights relevant experience and skills tailored to the jobs you're applying for. Joining online communities, like Facebook groups dedicated to remote work, can be invaluable. These platforms offer real-time job postings and provide support from fellow job seekers who share their experiences and tips. Additionally, keep a record of the jobs you apply for to streamline follow-ups, demonstrating your genuine interest. Remember, persistence is key; your dream WFH job may take time, but with each application, you're one step closer to achieving your goal. Stay motivated and don't hesitate to seek out additional resources to enhance your job search!

I have been working from home since 2020. I absolutely love it. Now my job is way beyond call center it’s liability claims adjuster which feels so refreshing to be relieved from phone stats now I just have claims handling stats. Good pay great benefits
