Landing A Legitimate Job While You Stay At Home
Finding legitimate telecommute jobs is easy if you know where to look at and you understand the needs of employers
. There are several sites that you can visit, listing several providers and some are from legitimate companies. One job I was able to secure was from a job bulletin site similar to Jobstreet and JobsDB.
Using their search engine, I made a search using keyword of 'Home-based Job'. I was then shown two (2) vacancies for teaching English proficiency from home. They required me to apply for the post and submit a comprehensive resume. One of the companies I applied for gave me a call and conducted a telephone interview for the post I applied for. Luckily, I passed the initial screening and was told that I would be given instruction at the beginning of the semester on January. They told me as well that I would be receiving a basic pay (on 15th and 30th of the month) every payroll period and my performance will be evaluated and monitored, similar to when I work full-time in a company.

2.Eliminating tardiness of employees as a result of city traffic when they commute to and from work place.
3.Getting lower manpower cost. Usually, telecommute jobs cost a bit lower compared to employing regular employees. Also, the need to insure employees as part of their benefit is not given to telecommuters.
4.And some other reasons and advantages to employers, as well as the employee who would prefer to stay at home and save time and effort spent on traveling or rather be at home to look after their children.
