This article will go over some of the most popular positions available that don’t require you to work in an office. Some of these listings may require a bachelor’s degree or other qualifications, so be sure to read each one carefully.
Customer Service Representative
Every business needs someone to speak directly with customers and address any problems or issues they’re having. Therefore, this is one of the most popular entry-level telecommuting careers. The main focus of this career is to listen to what the customer’s issues are and find ways to fix it.
Oftentimes, you will have to be assisted by higher-level executives and managers, so it’s important to have great communication skills.
Human Resources Assistant
This career is typically administrative-based, meaning you will be responsible for scheduling appointments, guiding new hires through orientation and updating all company employment information.
Email Marketing Assistant
A company’s email communications are vital to its success, both to current and prospective clients. As an email marketing assistant, you will create email campaigns that let customers know about upcoming events and new products, as well as management and expansion of email databases.
Accounts Receivable Associate

Also, accounts receivable associates may be responsible for keeping accounting logs updated, and making deposits into the bank.
Contact Tracer
With the spread of Covid 19, this position has become important for many different types of businesses.
Contact tracers work with people who have tested positive to find out anyone else they have come in contact with. They reach out to those other people and let them know they’ve been exposed so they can get tested and prevent further spread.
Junior Underwriter
The majority of these positions work at financial institutions and help senior underwriters with the loan approval process. This usually involves reviewing customer applications, evaluating credit reports, and troubleshooting any problems that come up during the process.
Quality Assurance Analyst
A quality assurance analyst works with a company’s IT department, mainly in fixing their software products. They test the software, review other user’s experiences, and offer solutions to any problems. To be clear, you have to be good with computers to land this type of gig.
