Navigating the telecommuting job maze can become overwhelming, not to mention
downright frustrating. I know- I have *been there, done that*
myself and I assist 9,000 daily readers of my wah ezine to find
their *perfect balance between work and family*.
Over seventy percent of working women surveyed stated that
their ideal career situation would be to telecommute. For
some, it's not feasible as there are certain jobs that obviously
could not be performed offsite. For others, their employers
staunchly oppose the thought of not having their employees
onsite. Although mistaken, they fear that productivity declines
when telecommuting occurs. Quite the contrary: teleworking
has proven to reduce turnover, decrease costs and productivity
actually increases. Why? It's a win-win situation for all
involved. Satisfied employees stay on the job and give 110%.
With swelling numbers of the workforce seeking work-at-home
jobs, how does one get an edge on the competition? After fourteen
years of telecommuting for various companies and helping others
via my ezine the past two years, I have found the following
tips will ease and shorten the time in your search :
* Network! I cannot stress this enough. Tell everyone
that you know that you are seeking a wah job. Approach those
with small businesses that may need help. Others that work
from home that may be looking for a virtual assistant or a
bookkeeper, etc. 75% of all jobs, albeit brick and mortar
or telecommuting jobs are found via networking. The squeaky
wheel does indeed get the grease!
