Thank you for tuning in to our weekday list of work at home jobs for moms. After serious thought and consideration, we have decided to discontinue our daily list and replace it with a jumbo list of work at home employers (coming soon). In the meantime, we’d also like to help empower you with your own job search tools in order to maximize your results and, hopefully, bring your job search to an end soon. While supplying you with daily job leads has been a rewarding experience, we feel it’s in everyone’s best interest to pass our techniques along and help you broaden your search process.
You’ll notice that a good deal of our leads come from CraigsList. If you haven’t already read our post explaining why this is, please take a moment to do so now. In order to perform your own nationwide search for work at home jobs for moms on CraigsList, simply make your way over to the Search Tempest. In the “Where” field, enter your own zip code and, just beneath the zip code field, select “any” from the pull down menu (for distance) and check the other three boxes to search within Canada, the U.S. and Mexico. Remember that work at home jobs for moms are everywhere and this broad search will allow you to view jobs from all CraigsList sites including your local site.
In the “What” field, enter the following:
work from home -sales -commission
This will search all of CraigsList for work at home jobs for moms featuring the phrase “work from home” while eliminating the millions of sales jobs advertised on CL or the work at home jobs for moms that pay commission only. Of course, some of these are legitimate work from home opportunities, but we’ve tried to only post work from home job leads that pay a guaranteed wage. If you’re looking for a sales or a commission-based opportunity, by all means change the search term to include these options. In fact, you can play around with the search terms and tailor the system to find precisely what you’re looking for. We usually perform several searches for work at home jobs for moms per day, starting with work from home -sales -commission and including:
writers -auto -automotive -intern
virtual assistant -sales -commission
customer service -sales -commission
transcription
remote
blogger
…and so on. Next, select the box just under the keyword field labeled “all/advanced”.
After inputting your search term, select “jobs” under the “Category” heading on the page and then select “all jobs” under the “Sub-Category” heading and, finally, check the “telecommute” box under “Craigs Options”. No matter the keywords you command the system to search for work at home jobs for moms, selecting the right categories and options makes all the difference in the world. So be sure everything is appropriately marked before pressing “search” and voila you now can search CL nationwide for the type of work at home jobs for moms you’re interested in!
Although we only generally do several searches at a time, we only sit down to do so once per day. However, you should use the system more than once daily if your schedule will permit. Doing so enables you to find fresh work from home job leads as they’re posted.
Also, the steps described above sound more detailed than they really are. Once you’re on the site, you’ll find that it only takes a few clicks to complete. If you have any problems or questions concerning the search process, feel free to contact us and we’ll try to help.
While Search Tempest and CraigsList are the easiest ways to search for work at home jobs for moms, especially when you’re short on time, they are not the only methods we’ve used and shouldn’t be the only ones you employ either. Here are a few more job boards where you can find work at home jobs for moms:
LinkedIn.com (Create an account for free and then make your way over to their job board)
Be sure to also read Part 1 and Part 2 of a detailed article we featured a while back on finding work at home jobs for moms.
And, don’t worry, although we’re not listing daily job leads anymore, we are still in your corner and ready to help you find work at home jobs for moms. While you search for your own daily leads, we’ll work on building a master list of sites that routinely offer work at home jobs for moms and link you to the job boards of several companies noted for offering telecommuting positions.
We’ll unveil a separate area for these companies soon, but here’s a short list that you may want to check out right away:
K12 (for teaching and online tutoring work at home jobs for moms)
Apple (for tech work at home jobs for moms)
GlobalWired (for call center work at home jobs for moms)
American Airlines (for call center work at home jobs for moms)
Capital One (for call center work at home jobs for moms)
Again, this is a VERY short list of employers offering work from home job leads. In the weeks ahead, we’ll build upon this list as we intend to offer you a one-stop portal to work at home employers. Look for official news of this new work from home company page in our newsletter.
Thanks, again, for tuning in and here’s to taking your search for work at home jobs for moms to the next level!
