With the economic downturn, it’s hard for students to find part-time jobs because stores are closing and jobs meant for teens are now mostly taken by adults who were hit by company bankruptcies and downsizing. I know someone who used to work for General Motors and now rides his bike every morning delivering newspapers around the neighborhood. That’s how tough times are right now and the good news is there are still job opportunities for students like you like online data entry. The pay is very good and it is very easy to start. Even an average high school graduate can do it without a problem.
The job is good for part-timers because the work schedule is flexible. You will be working at home and you will decide what your workload and work schedule will be. You can even work anywhere you want as long as there is an internet connection. Above all, what is so beautiful about this job is that it does not require specialized training and high educational background. If you are computer literate and know how to type at medium speed.
The job will only require you to enter information into a computer database. As a complete beginner, you can apply for jobs like document reformatting, document scanning for electronic filing, indexing, product catalog creation, and online form filling.
In order to boost your data entry job career you don’t have to buy expensive office equipment. All you will need is a personal computer and just a subscription to an Internet company. You can set up your office in any part of your home that allows you to work uninterrupted.
You can apply online through an online job site like Odesk. You will need to register, post your resume and apply for the jobs that interest you. Or you can also sign up for online data entry programs like National Data Entry. There’s no risk if you join because they offer a no-questions-asked paid membership refund if you think it’s not working for you. Do your best and good luck.
