I heard on the news today, that the unemployment rate has not been this high since 1983. The unemployment rate rose to 10.2%, that is approximately nearly 16 million people who are out of work. President Obama vowed, to keep pushing for new jobs and will not stop until every American can have a job that will be enough to support themselves and their families. Capital Hill has agreed to a fourth extension of unemployment benefits. That's a lot to swallow for the people who live in the greatest country in the world, but that is what has happened and will continue to happen for some time to come. That is where home-based jobs come in. Many employers are afraid to hire new workers because of the unstable economy. It is cheaper for many to hire home-based workers at a fraction of the cost. Businesses do not have to offer pensions, 401Ks, medical and dental, etc. All they have to do is pay a flat rate per hour to stay at home workers.
These are some of the companies that I registered with, when I was looking for extra income. Virtual Office Temps is an online employment agency, which gets leads from businesses for people who want to work at home. The jobs range from typists to website design and much more. This service is absolutely free for people who are looking for jobs. The jobs that are listed and emailed to you range from $10 - $35 an hour. You can work weekdays, weekends, or both. You make your own schedule.
You will have to have a resume that can be downloaded, virtual fax and voicemail, e-fax, virtual networking account (you can access your computer files remotely from anywhere), and the latest in Microsoft office. Many of the programs listed above can be obtained for free. Microsoft office live is free. Ring Central offers 800 numbers and e-fax. Rapid Fax offers e-fax abilities as well. Many of these services are free for a required time, and less than $30 a month thereafter.
You must be familiar with using the computer. You will definitely need to know the programs of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Many jobs have minimum requirements such as; a land line phone (not all companies use cell phones) and time. HomeWorkersNet also offers free work at home jobs with minimum requirements. Once you register, they will email you a list of jobs, you then pick and apply for the positions that interest you. That's how I came to become an Examiner.
Some sites that you can visit for work at home jobs are: www.virtualofficetemps.com,
www.homeworkersnet.com, and www.careerbuilders.com. These companies hire only home-based workers. They are: Alpine Access; Convergys; Extended Presence; Internet Girl Friday; Live Ops; Spheris; Staff Centrix; VIP Desk; Voicelog; and West At Home. These companies use their name for the website, just put a [www] in front and a [.com] at the end and you will be there.
If you can't get a job on the outside, try the many job offers for the inside. I hope this information helps. Best of Luck!!
