Real Online Data Entry Jobs Insight

Online data entry jobs are scarce, but not unheard of in this day and age of the computer and Internet.

Before applying for any job you may find , you’ll want to make sure your skills and experience meet the qualifications requested. Yes…even online data entry jobs have requirements at times. It’s not eating bon bons, while you watch soap operas and type leisurely! I swear…I get emails from people wanting who want to make $40,000 a year watching TV at home, working part time…..typing some “stuff”. Good luck with that! Now for the rest of us….that are in reality – I suggest getting real with your skills and your home office. Data entry jobs are out there – but we’re not going to be living like the Real Housewives of NY.

Below are companies that hire data entry workers. (Scroll entire page or you’ll miss out!) I try and update the list often. Check back often to see if there are online data entry jobs that interest you.

 

If you need any type of clerical training and/or classes to meet qualifications, which can be the case for some data entry jobs, you might start with contacting your local community tech college. Inquire about computer classes, word processing and particular software classes you might need.

Having the properly equipped home office will be important too. Your potential employer will want to know that you are serious, professional and qualified. Having a good computer, faxing capabilities, remote access to your computer in case you need it and keeping your computer free of spyware would be the bare minimums in my opinion. Online data entry jobs sometimes mean entering private or sensitive information. You’ll want to be secure.

Absolutely get yourself one of the great computer based faxing services. Try one out….the trials are free. If you decide to keep it – then there is a low monthly fee. This way you’re not having to go out and buy a piece of equipment, ink, paper…etc. Computer faxing is the way to go. It’s too easy. I use RingCentral. I’ve always gotten good service – and I pay less than $8 a month for their fax service. The 30 day trial is totally free. I suggest just signing up for it and trying it. At least you can get an idea of what it’s like to use an online fax service. Consider it a little training at no cost! There is no obligation with RingCentral – but it might be worth looking into. I use it almost every day for real estate stuff.

I even have my 800# through RingCentral. Yep…just lil ole me…and I have an 800#! You can get your own Toll Free or Local Number with voicemail for as low as $9.99 per month.

These are steps that not only make your home office more efficient and qualified – it also helps give polish and professionalism to your portfolio! How professional to have an 800 number for your online data entry jobs information.

Go after online data entry jobs you find just as you would a job outside the home. Have a classy, professional and CURRENT resume with a personalized cover let to match as part of your marketing plan! If you don’t have a clue where to begin on updating your resume or writing one for the first time – don’t fret. There are many services out there and helpful tips. See my section titled Resumes 101 to get started.

Too many times people go after online data entry jobs unprofessionally. If you really want the job, if you really need the income…..then don’t respond to a job position with an email saying….”Yeah… I’d like more info on this job.”

NO! If I were looking for someone to hire for data entry jobs, I would not find this appropriate or worth my time.

Sending an email like that (even if you’re qualified) and another person sends a nice resume and a personal cover letter that states their genuine interest and why they’d be the best candidate –then guess what…..you just lost your chance!

Why do I stress this so much?? (You want employment or a career in the online data entry jobs field, right??? Then listen up!)

I know from experience as being the person looking for work and being the person doing the hiring. Some of the emails I’ve received when looking for a proofreader were filled with typos, no resume and asking about what the pay was! I didn’t even respond to that type of email.

The second part of the process is looking at the individual’s qualifications. If I get a cover letter with a typo in it and I’m hiring a proofreader….well -  you can guess how that looks. Don’t waste your time or an employers time if you truly do not meet their qualifications or experience guidelines.

Your resume is YOU. Are you a crumpled up piece of paper with stains on it, or are you a pristine, clearly written, ambitious piece of linen paper that wants to get noticed? Whether you’re looking for data entry jobs or whatever – have a nice resume.

Don’t forget our online search tool as well. Typically there are several data entry jobs listed each day. So bookmark this page:

Sometimes I get emails from people all bent out of shape that some job ads “ask for money”. First off is it an actual “job ad”?? Is it from a company like Sears or Nextel or Microsoft and they are asking you to pay to be an employee? That’s wrong.

But if the person is asking for a membership fee to information of job listings, or a product to help you create your own business or a fee for a start up kit (think Avon, Discovery Toys, Tupperware) then that is a whole different ball game. Remember… there is NO free lunch. If you don’t want to pay someone for the information or kit or whatever it is — then do the work and create it for yourself. If it’s worthwhile — then sell the information to others at a reasonable price and you’ve created your own JOB!

Also…. look into the transcription job area or the writing area. Even online proofreading is becoming huge and I know many that have earned doing it. Almost all jobs in these areas will require samples of your work or some type of testing to rate your skill level. Be prepared for this. I don’t know of many high paying data entry jobs that don’t require speed and proficiency in typing.

Sometimes it can take months, if not years to land the dream online data entry job you want. Being ready with a great resume, keeping your skills current and searching daily is certainly the most positive move in that direction!

If you seem to be hitting obstacle after obstacle researching online data entry jobs – don’t get too discouraged. Many other avenues are opening up for people to earn at home. Telecommuting is becoming more and more acceptable. Look around your own community for ideas and data entry jobs or services you can offer local businesses.

Some folks are looking into the digital camera scene and learning how to earn using their cameras. Digital cameras are very affordable now. This might be something that interests you, if photography is a passion.

Others are finding success learning the ins and outs of writing on the internet. Blogging for blog owners and writing articles is becoming a steady way to earn cash.
