Do you know what you're looking for
when searching for a work from home job?

Chances are you don't

When looking for information on the internet for a work from home job or a home based business opportunity, the lines are really blurred.
I say that because these days you have a lot of people advertising business opportunities as work from home jobs. Its not entirely their fault, because they probably don't know the difference themselves!


Work From Home Job = Employee



A job, meaning you work with a company that is allowing you the flexibility to work from home. Another term for this is Telecommuting. From now on when I am referring to this type of job I will use the word telecommuting.
When telecommuting you have a boss and will attend teleconferences or meetings periodically throughout the month to update him on the progress of what you are working on. Just like a business opportunity you will need to have a computer with internet access and a phone, however any special job related software will most likely be supplied by your employer with NO charge to you.

Since you are considered an employee, you will receive a W-2 from your employer at the end of the year so you can file your taxes.

Common confusion between the two is the investment. If you want to have a job there is ABSOLUTELY NO investment. If anyone ever requires you to pay for a job, turn around and run the other way because its a scam

You will apply for a telecommuting job the same way you would apply for any other job.

The employer will want to see a resume and will also schedule some kind of interview.

Telecommuting = Salary or Hourly Pay



Telecommuting means you are guaranteed a paycheck. You will either be paid by salary or will have to log your hours and get paid hourly (most likely salary). So there will be no period in time when you are wondering when your hard work is going to finally pay off.
