How can you work from home with little or no experience? Maybe you are just starting out trying to find employment, or you have been working out in the real world. Younger people often ask me what kind of jobs they can find working from home, and many of these candidates have minimal experience or skills. This article will go over different entry-level jobs that you may be interested in and require no previous knowledge or skillset.

Customer Service Representative – CVS

Like most other well-known brands, CVS also has a customer service department. Make sure that you are applying for this job directly from the company’s website, jobs.cvshealth.com. If you are unsure if it is a work-from-home position, then check at the top of the application, and it should say: Remote: Fully remote.

Make sure to read through the entire job description to know what type of duties you will have on the job. Customer service jobs are typically offered in many different departments for large companies. It is vital to know which department you will be in to know what types of issues you may have to resolve. There are two requirements for this job. The first requirement requests that you are familiar with Microsoft Office products such as Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel. Most people are familiar with both of these programs, and if you aren’t, you can find some tutorials online pretty easily. The other requirement is high-speed internet access, which you need for any work-from-home job. If you think this job might be a fit for you, you can apply online here.

Help Save Lives! Content Review (Remote) – Gaggle

I did work for this company before, and I highly recommend working with them. They have decent pay and give you the ability to work your own hours. If you do well, you might even be able to have a set schedule if you want. This job is not for the faint of heart. You will be reviewing content that students share with their peers and teachers. It will often be schoolwork, but there will be other times that you might see something profound.

*I recommend if you apply for this job that you can read and comprehend very quickly as you will be reading pages and pages of content.

You don’t have to have any previous experience doing this. They will train you on what to look for, but you will also need to read over some written material and pass several tests to get this job. Here are the qualifications as listed on their job posting:

  • Experience using various computer and web-based applications in a professional environment
  • Interest and enthusiasm for reading, as the position requires focused attention to reading various lengths of content
  • Ability to delineate between potentially harmful student matters and harmless situations
  • Experience with tech and social media culture
  • Knowledge of trends and slang used by children and teenagers to help identify potential issues
  •  Ability to exhibit tolerance of and respect for others’ opinions
  • Strong communication skills
  • Adaptability to change
  • Access to high-speed internet (satellite is not acceptable)
  • Access to a computer, Chromebook, or laptop
  • Minimum operating system: Mac: El Capitan or above, Windows 7 or above, Fedora 28 or above
  • Minimum processor required: Core i3

This job is an excellent fit for anyone who wants to choose what hours they work or who doesn’t want to spend their time talking to customers on the phone. Or you may not be able to have a customer service job for personal or health reasons. In order to start the application process for this contract, you will need to complete the Pre-Contract Quiz by clicking here. Once you pass the Pre-Test, you will be provided with a link to complete the application process if you have been considered for a position.

*Note: This employer also hires through Upwork and this is an independent contractor/freelancing job.

Telephone Interviewer

This is another phone job, but most entry-level jobs available will be calling or receiving calls. If you don’t want to receive inbound calls or make sales calls, this might be a decent or ideal job for you. The job posting I found is offered by a company called Recon MR. Remember that you will more than likely need to have no noise or a quiet background to make calls. This job is limited to Texas residents only.

All you have to do is call people, get them to talk to you, and interview them on various topics. Even better, you read verbatim from a script, so you don’t have to try to think of things to say. They boast that there are never any sales or collections and that you are making a difference in the world with the work that you do. No experience is necessary and you even get paid training!

Here are the requirements for this job:

Skill Requirements:

  • Good communication skills
  • Comfortable talking on the phone
  • Basic reading, computer, and typing skills
  • Basic understanding of good customer service

Additional Requirements for Work-From-Home:

  • Windows Computer
  • High-Speed Internet
  • Situation suitable for working from home (quiet room free from distractions)
  • Must live in Texas

Their job description says that you can choose your own hours, but one weekend shift is required, and you must work a minimum of 18 hours/week and up to 40. If you think this job might fit you, you can find out more details and apply here.

If none of these jobs sound like a fit for you, I highly recommend that you check out my freelancing blog article and look into working for yourself. It might take some time to get to the pay rate you want or feel you are worth, but that is the only way you won’t start out with customer service. Even I started in customer service long ago when I first started working from home. If you have any suggestions or would like me to add a job to my site that your company offers (must be remote or work from home), then please send me an email.
