Hi! I'm wondering if anyone here has ever considered working from home? I see a lot of jobs where you could work from home and I often think just how great it would be to work from home and be there with my children. I don't know anything about working from home or even where to look for these types of jobs to make sure that they're legitimate. Does anyone know anything about working from home that they'd be willing to share with me? Thanks!

There is a large amount of information available about Home-Based work of all types; some advertisers of jobs are scammers and you need to be careful.

In the next day or so I'll find some of the links, ebooks etc and post on this forum where you can access them.

HBB is becoming increasingly popular, especially with modern communications systems like the Internet and the need for many people to look after children.

Best wishes

I will happely work from home if I find such a job but I believe that this thing is kind of hard because in Romania aren't so many employers that let you work from home.I have a question for you guys,do you some websites where you can find jobs that you can do from home,maybe using your pc?

Enter "work at home jobs" in a search engine and you'll find thousands of links to prospective employers (but watch for scams).

PS: Are you from Cyprus?

Thank for the advice.No I'm not from Cyprus I'm from Romania did you noticed the flag or you didn't know which country is that?And if I were from Cyprus what did you had in mind for me?Did you had a job offer for me,because if it's a good one I can go to Cyprus right now:)

I saw the flag Ciprian13, but thought because of your nickname you may have come from Cyprus. I've just been there this last week for a holiday and had a really great time. I loved the food, wine, sights and some of the Greek godesses were stunning.

Sorry, I can't help you with a job.

I know that my name has a cyprus conation because it was inspired from that land Cyprus.I would love to visit myself Cyprus because I've heard that is a wonderful country with some astonishing landscapes but I'll do that after I'll win more than 300$ on month and this is kind of hard in my country.

) don't worry, Ciprian, we'll soon get into the UE and you'll earn more.... Smile

And noqw to answer our working mom...I don't know how old you are and how many kids you have....cause I can see you're eligible to prefer a working from home job. Nevertheless....if you're an active person, socially especially, I don't see this as a good option....
You can earn good money working from home when you are truly skilled...like in computers for example, and you do hard things others can't do....The rest of the offers don't bring such a great income....Not to mention Robin's good remark "watch out for scams" Smile

So we arrived to a conclusion to have a good and well paid "home job" you need to be a computer wizz or an inventive writer.Do you believe that some diplomas in this area will help you in finding a real job?For example a diploma for the best novel writer or something similar.

I was really hoping that there would be some jobs other than computer expert or good writer available. I was hoping that there would be something that I could do without having a diploma. I hear that there are work at home call centers but don't know how to find such work. I'm really scared of running into the scams that Robin has mentioned.
