Once you’ve identified the companies that you’re interested in, start searching for open positions. Google makes this simple to do. Just enter the name of the company and “work at home jobs.”
FlexJobs is another legitimate resource if you’re serious about looking for a stay-at-home job. You may want to consider a short-term subscription, which starts at $14.95 for a month.
Yes, the service costs a few bucks — but it filters out all of the scam job postings.
