<\/a> 1. Customer Service<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Customer service roles might not be the easiest jobs, but plenty exist. If you do a quick search, you’ll find thousands of remote positions with ranging pay.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Not all customer service jobs pay as much as $40,000 a year, but since jobs are plenty, you have room to be picky. In the U.S., the average pay for a customer service representative is <\/span><\/span><\/span>$19.12<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>. However, it can reach as much as nearly $40 an hour.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a> 2. Teaching<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Landing a job with no experience as a teacher and the right credentials is easy, but it varies by state. However, remote positions are plenty, and since teachers are in demand, it’s easy to land a role in virtual schools.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

My best friend started teaching at an online homeschool once she graduated with her degree in education. On average, first-year teachers make <\/span><\/span><\/span>$44,530<\/span><\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a> 3. Content Writing<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When I first got into content writing, I knew nothing. It’s so embarrassing going back to my previous work and seeing all the mistakes I made. However, that’s part of the process.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Entry-level content writers can make good money, and most roles are freelance. This depends on the company. I’ve seen entry-level salaries reach as high as $60,000.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a> 4. Insurance Agent<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I always assumed you needed extra schooling to be an insurance agent, but apparently, that’s not the case.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

My brother became an insurance agent with just customer service experience. His longest job was as a fry cook at McDonald’s, yet he is paid over $20 an hour to call insurance companies from home. His company paid for his insurance and training.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a> 5. Information Technology<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

IT isn’t something everyone knows, but if you have the <\/span><\/span><\/span>skills<\/span><\/span><\/span>, might as well put them to the test. Entry-level IT specialists can make really good money, all from the comfort of their homes.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Entry-level IT specialists bring home an average of <\/span><\/span><\/span>$84,113<\/span><\/span><\/span> a year \u2013 this is about $40 an hour. Senior IT specialists make closer to $100,000 or more.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a> 6. Virtual Assistant<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For a short while, I worked as a virtual assistant. Every day was different. Occasionally I made calls and appointments for my boss, while other days were filled with data entry and answering emails and questions. It was a lot like being a <\/span><\/span><\/span>personal assistant<\/span><\/span><\/span>, but entirely online.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Virtual assisting isn’t something you need a degree in to get your foot in the door. I started with no experience. Entry-level virtual assistants earn about <\/span><\/span><\/span>$26.27<\/span><\/span><\/span> an hour.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a> 7. Graphic Designing<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Graphic designers blow my mind. This creative job entails communicating with multiple departments to create beautiful graphic art that goes on posters, postcards, websites, social media posts, and more. While you need to know how to design graphics on software like Adobe Photoshop or Procreate, entry-level positions require minimal experience.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So, how much can you make starting out? Entry-level graphic designers in the U.S. make <\/span><\/span><\/span>$60,701<\/span><\/span><\/span> a year. Of course, some companies pay a lot less. I once saw a local ad for graphic designers hiring at just $12 an hour<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a> 8. Translation Services<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Are you fluent in another language other than English? If yes, you may want to consider becoming a translator. You don’t have to work in person for these jobs. Actually, there are plenty of remote positions where being bilingual is a win.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I once worked as a remote translator for public schools in my state. I’d translate for teachers, principals, and parents over the phone or on a video call.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a> 9. Tutoring<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Teaching and tutoring is not the same. To be a teacher, you need to have a state license. However, tutors don’t always go to college or have additional licenses.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
