11 – Bonus Tip – Check out FlexJobs for even more typing jobs
Flexible jobs is one of my favorite sites for finding remote jobs and discovering new companies that are hiring remotely. Most of what I see out there when I check the ads pay well above minimum wage and are well-known companies.
The best thing about FlexJobs is that they guarantee that ALL ads are scam free. They list hundreds of jobs, all remote or flexible, five days a week. There is also no advertising on the site.
Since there are no ads, they charge a membership fee, as that is the only way they will see a return on their job search efforts. But it’s cheap — you can access their ads for just $2.95 for a few weeks to make sure you like it!
If you sign up and aren’t happy, it’s easy to cancel immediately so you don’t get charged again for the next month.
