Although it was possible to work from home a long time ago, many of us were forced to replace our offices with living rooms due to the corona virus pandemic, which was not so bad for some. There are more and more jobs, advertising sites are crowded and it is certain that anyone who wants can find something for themselves.
Almost two years ago, some of us met for the first time with the transfer of our entire lives to virtual functioning. From socializing, college, all the way to work – everything has switched to the Internet. During that period, it seems that many people liked working from home, so now you can find hundreds of advertisements for work from home on employment sites.
Even after the state of emergency, even on days when the number of newly infected people was declining, some people did not have much desire to return to their offices and continue with the “normal”, offline way of doing business.
The list of reasons why the world has gone crazy for jobs that can be done from the comfort of their own homes is long. First of all, at the very beginning, we were forced to work in this way, in order to preserve our own health and the health of the people around us.
However, many have managed to get other benefits from work from home. When you work from home, in many cases you can schedule your responsibilities, you can work with coffee or food, which many at their workplaces otherwise cannot. You can work in your pajamas, out of bed, which leads to the fact that often, except when you work with the camera on, you do not have to spend a minute of your time tidying up. This means that many of the employees who work online will be able to afford a little more sleep. In the end, you will save yourself the time you would otherwise spend in transportation.
Who can do everything from home?
The answer is simple – just about everyone. Of course, in addition to the knowledge and skills you can offer in the labor market, you also need basic IT knowledge that will enable you to do your job. In the age of social media, learning to search for basic computer programs has never been easier.
Working from home provides the opportunity for everyone to earn money, especially now, when IT occupations are not the only ones in demand.
Any person who has to offer the knowledge and skills that are in demand at the moment or who, on the other hand, has a talent that he can cash in, has the opportunity to earn money online.
If you have solved the issue of the ability to do business via a computer, the next step is to provide a computer with Internet access.
He is now officially a candidate who has the potential to make money online. It’s time to find a job.
What jobs can you do from home, but offline?
As you can imagine, the list of occupations that you can do from home without the Internet is not too long.
Here, too, “computer scientists” are in the lead. Web designers and developers represent a large proportion of online workers. They can use their knowledge in the field of marketing and web design, and they can present their products and services both online and offline.
There are also distributors who can offer products through their channels to potential customers in an offline environment.
Which all online home jobs are offered
Unlike offline jobs, there are far more ways to make money online.
If you look for jobs you can do from home on the most popular sites, you will see hundreds of ads. So, you are probably not the only one who has seen all the charms of working from home, but it is almost certain that you will find something for yourself in the sea of ​​ads.
These ads seem like the perfect place for anyone with IT skills. If you are a programmer, software engineer or WordPress editor, there are the most ads for you.
Working from home can be a good opportunity to finally use your knowledge of foreign languages. Whether it’s private lessons or work in the user center, there are ads, and the languages ​​required vary – from English and Italian, through French and Arabic, all the way to Norwegian.
If neither informatics nor languages ​​are close to you – then there is no reason to worry. There are so many sought-after professions – sales director, project manager, quality assurance analyst, social media advertising expert, interior designer, marketing expert, accountant, telephone interviewer, graphic designer.
There are also platforms that offer you those jobs that do not seem like “classic jobs”. Namely, you may have already seen platforms that offer you to fill out surveys for money. There are surveys that can be completed in two minutes, but there are also some that will require you to spend a little more time, and you will be paid accordingly.
While this is not a job that will be able to pay your bills, it is a tempting way to earn some more dinars if you don’t have a lot of time.
Part-time and part-time jobs from home
You may already have a full-time job, but you want to earn extra money, you may be a student and you don’t have time to set aside eight hours a day, and you may not be able to find a full-time job that suits you.
Of course, you may get the opportunity to start working part-time part-time. Maybe you like earnings, and maybe you realize that you enjoy the business enough to dedicate yourself to it completely.
If you like to write, and enjoy spending time on social networks, you can try copywriting – writing advertising solutions, slogans, verses for advertising jingles, but also promotional emails and content for social networks.
Proofreader is the next part time occupation and is similar to lector. Through various online platforms, you can apply to correct grammatical and spelling errors in different types of texts if you have knowledge of English.
Although this part-time profession has not yet become very popular in Serbia, all those who speak a foreign language will be happy.
This includes the increasingly popular language learning, most often English, via Skype or other similar platforms.
What are freelance jobs?
Freelancers are part-time, occasional jobs, and many choose this way of earning money because you decide everything yourself. You decide which jobs you will do, but also when and how much time you will set aside for it.
Although, at the very beginning, Serbian freelance jobs were reserved mainly for developers and web designers, the market has changed, and now freelance is becoming more and more popular.
It doesn’t matter if you are a language teacher, translator, copywriter, writer, photographer, marketing manager, graphic designer, online salesman, sales agent or personal trainer, there is room for you in the field of filing.
If you have been thinking of trying out freelance, you have probably wondered how much it is possible to earn in this way. You can often hear about the dizzyingly high salaries of Serbian freelancers, but the salary depends on the profession you choose. If you are a web developer, the best chances are to make big money.
Freelancers usually decide to calculate their earnings per hour, but it can also be fixed, which is paid to the freelancer upon completion of the project.
While all of this may sound tempting, there are certain conditions you need to be aware of before embarking on freelance water.
First of all, if you decide to work through a freelance site, you should know that they take a certain commission. In addition, transferring money from a freelance site through a service also carries with it a fee.
It can happen that as a freelancer you work on a project for a company that does not have a representative office in Serbia, and you, as a freelancer who does not have a registered business, have the obligation to pay taxes and various contributions.
Three days after the arrival of the payment from abroad, the freelancer should submit a tax return, and in that way the state will collect his income tax, as well as contributions for pension and disability insurance, health insurance and unemployment insurance.
If you decide to skip this step, you should know that the state can collect taxes retroactively over a period of five years.
More and more people are deciding to use their talent online. Increasingly, we can see profiles of people selling handmade jewelry, knitted items, paintings and posters, handmade decorations or a variety of culinary products.
If you are creative and want to make money from your talent, maybe a “classic job” is not for you, but cashing in on your talent will suit you perfectly.
Online Jobs to Avoid – Ad Fraud
Although the Internet is full of ads through which you can find a good job from home and earn a satisfactory amount of money, scams are not uncommon. You need to be careful not to put yourself in a situation where you do not get the money that was previously guaranteed for the work you did.
First of all, you need to use a reliable platform, which you know is right for you, either based on your previous experience or based on the experience of people from your environment.
If something sounds too good to be true – it’s probably not true. For starters, ask how much you can earn in the position you are applying for. If you see that the starting salary is significantly higher than that offered by all other employers, you may need to inquire more about the employer and the company itself.
Jobs labeled “urgent” can be problematic – so it’s important to know that no job is so urgent that you can’t think about an offer.
If you are offered a job immediately, without prior conversation, even via Skype, you should turn on the red light.
However, we should not be skeptical either, because we meet every day with examples of people who have just earned large sums of money via the Internet and decided that the job via the Internet will be their permanent employment, Nova writes.
