How to find a remote job without experience — is one of the most popular questions on the Internet. By “no experience,” beginners usually mean not a certain work experience, but the absence of hard skills — complex professional skills. The freelance market is full of offers for unskilled personnel. It remains only to figure out which vacancies are right for you.
Assess Your Knowledge
If you are over 18 years old and it is not your first day on the Internet, then you probably already know how to do something. If you say that you can’t do anything — it is definitely not true!
Newbies looking for a job usually know how to do one of these:
- Use laptop;
- Surf the Internet;
- Chat;
- Like and comment on posts on social networks;
- Photoshop simple pictures;
- Translate text from English to another language or vice versa.
Make a similar list of your own knowledge. For example, you are good at AutoCAD or Excel, or you can sing and have a trained voice. Are you versed in computer games? Or do you feel confident on Instagram and lots of people like your stories? Do you run a Facebook page with cats or a group for Nigeria residents? Write everything in the list, it will be easier to navigate.
Choose a Field
Most vacancies are in the digital environment but a beginner always has a choice of vacancies related to phone calls — for example, cold calls to customers.
- SEO (search engine optimization of sites);
- SMM (social media marketing);
- Education (online courses and online schools);
- Media and bloggers;
- Games;
- Foreign languages;
- Design;
You don’t even need to think about programming, data science, analytics, and other well-paid industries. In these areas, advanced hard skills are required at the start. Also, do not pay attention to vacancies like “retyping documents,” these are scammers.
