According to the US Department of Commerce's Census Bureau, in just the last few years the number of parents working from home has greatly increased - nearly 50%! In 2004 over 5 million parents worked from home, and today that number has increased to 11 million. With so many more parents at home than before, there is a much higher demand for work-at-home jobs that are legitimate. Many are discouraged by hard these jobs seem to be able to find, when they are truthfully right at their fingertips.

According to the US Department of Commerce's Census Bureau, in just the last few years the number of parents working from home has greatly increased - nearly 50%! In 2004 over 5 million parents worked from home, and today that number has increased to 11 million. With so many more parents at home than before, there is a much higher demand for work-at-home jobs that are legitimate. Many are discouraged by hard these jobs seem to be able to find, when they are truthfully right at their fingertips.
I became a stay-at-home mom in 1999 when my eldest daughter was born. There were so many things I wanted to be able to do for her, but knew the demands of an outside work environment would not allow the time for. After a three month stint of being at home, I loved the time spent with my daughter, but also missed working as a professional and being able to bring in a salary for myself. At that time my older brother jokingly stated, \"Ask your old job if you can work from home.\" I was elated at the idea. His response, \"That will never happen!\" Ok, so it did not happen with that employer, but the point is it happened. And it was much easier than I expected. In the below paragraphs I will explain my method for legitimate work at home employment,how you to can obtain the same dream, and the benefits.
When I started off, I knew I would have to brush up my resume and make myself stand out from the crowd. I put together lists of my experiences, skills, and qualities, and I gathered reference letters from my previous employers. After I was set with my resume and recommendations, I searched the job market for any position in any industry I knew that I was capable of doing. I imagined during these searches what I would say when contacting prospective companies, and then when I did call them, I was already prepared for what I would ask. Back then I received lots of \"no\" answers to when I asked if the companies had workers from home, but back then home employees were not popular as they are now. If they answered no, I then asked if they hired contract employees. Larger companies seemed to not take the contract positions seriously, but smaller companies were more willing. I ended up being hired as a Bookkeeper with a law firm, where I worked for some time before more opportunities arose.
When looking for work at home, there are a couple of different things you need to think about. Contract positions tend to be an easier way to get into a company, but they require prior experience in the field or for you to have a degree. While contract positions do tend to pay more, they also have a lack of benefits. However, in time many contract positions transform into offers to be a full employee of the company. In an employee position there are benefits.
Prior to approaching companies, make sure you have a set of references lined up that will speak about your skills, qualities and experiences on your behalf. It is best to not choose relatives for references, as their opinion of you may be biased. Selecting references who you have worked with is best. Make sure you are careful in who you select, as since you are working independently, your references will likely undergo a background check.
Next is to make sure your resume stands out. It is extremely important that your resume has no grammatical or spelling errors. It is also best to put what is most impressive about your background on your resume first. For example, if you have little work experience, then put your education first. If you have a more impressive work experience however, place that first.
Lastly, it's important to be wary of work-at-home sites you come across on the internet. There are some legitimate companies out there, but they tend to be vastly overweighed by the scam sites. Do some research if you find work-at-home websites. It doesn't hurt to search the old-fashioned way. Call up the companies you find and like, and don't be scared of getting no for an answer. Follow these steps and be persistant and call, and you're guaranteed to find a job from home.
To finish up, I wanted to mention a couple of the things that are really great about staying home. The positives far outweigh the negatives - and the only negative that comes to mind is occasionally you may come across a company that expects you to work in front of a web camera (no working in your pajamas!). However, your schedule will be much more free and lenient. You'll be able to take your kids to and from places, and attend groups and meetings or even all those recitals and sports games of your kids that you had to miss in the past. You will have more time for your spouse and children, but most importantly, yourself.
