Coronavirus Pandemic: A New Opportunity

As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, companies have moved their daily work to online. However, there are still many businesses that have closed and thousands of workers that have lost their jobs. This is the sad truth of 2020. However, if you have a computer and an internet connection, there are endless new opportunities that you may not even know about! Countless individuals have taken to the online world in search of their next career.

While stuck at home during the pandemic, you can start working a remote job from the comfort of your own home. Here are 5 examples to get you inspired:
  1. Teach English: VIPKid, Qkids and Magic Ears all recruit native English speakers to teach online English classes to young kids in China. If you already have a degree in teaching, UoPeople offers a Masters of Education degree to help you propel your career in this field.
  2. Edit Content: If you have experience in quality analysis and checking for content errors, Reedsy is always looking for talented individuals for editing written works.
  3. Virtual Assistant: If you are an organized and motivated individual, try finding an online assistant job. Through Boldly or Belay, you can start doing pretty much anything from scheduling meetings and conferences to social media and website work.
  4. Professional Services: If you’re more acclimated to the professional side of things, then take a look at sites like FreeUp, SkipTheDrive, Remote and Working Not Working. There you’ll be able to find content, web development, marketing, design and other jobs.
