Work from Home Frequently Asked Questions

 

What keywords should I use when searching for a work-from-home position?

 

In your search, include terms like Remote, Telecommute, Virtual, Freelance, Work Remotely, Home-based, or Work from Home. Be sure to have at least one of these keywords so that it does not restrict your search.

 

Also, it is helpful to explore search engines dedicated to work-from-home positions, such as Flexjobs, Indeed, ZipRecruiter, and Glassdoor. When searching, if a regular search is not showing the results you are satisfied with, it is a good idea to perform an advanced search.

 

How do I find a legitimate work-from-home job?  

 

A broad search could add hundreds of unwanted results and additional time to your job search. Not all work-from-home jobs are offered by companies that are out of state.

 

There are many local companies offering opportunities in various fields that may be of interest to you. According to glassdoor.com, the top companies to work remotely for include VIPKID, TTEC, Dell, Kelly Services, and Intuit. Check out the link for a complete listing of leading companies.

 

How do I know if a work-from-home company is legit?

 

It is easy to fall into the trap of illegitimate companies offering a chance of a lifetime, only for you to realize that it was all a scam. Scammers realize that there are millions of Americans out there searching for ways to make extra money and they would love to get their hands on your personal information and leave you as a victim of identity theft.

 

Thoroughly investigate the name of the company to ensure that it is reputable. A simple Google search or BBB search will guide you through this confusion.

Remember, when searching for remote positions, be sure to check the source of the listing. Go Phish! (or not!) Phishing sites are designed to look natural, but they’re created to be harmful. These phishing (or spammy) sites may potentially download viruses onto your computer or mobile device. The Federal Trade Commission has excellent tips on how to spot a phishing scam.

 

When you apply for Cincinnati Remote Jobs, remember these tips, and you’ll be on your way to securing your future career. Happy searching!
