Are there any data entry jobs out there that I don’t have to pay to do?
I am looking for a second job that I can do from home to make a little extra income. I was thinking that there might be a data entry job for some big company out there but all I find are the "work at home and make $10,000 a day!" type ads that want you to pay $40 to $200 to get started. Does anyone know of legitimate at home jobs that will pay you for the work that you do?
This off-line typing opportunity only applies to the U.S., Canada and Europe.
If you are an accomplished typist – word processor and have recently visited your local 4-year university librarian, you can apply as a "certified" graduate typist, earning between $1.50 to $2.00 per page for typing a master or doctoral thesis. The librarian will ask the following questions in order to qualify you as a "certified" typist:
(1) Are you familiar and have a working knowledge of Microsoft Word?
(2) Are you able to set up section breaks along with appropriate placement of auto page numbering in the footer/header?
(3) Are you familiar with setting up a scheme with emphasis on the proper use of auto numbering, such as 1., 1.1, (a), (i), etc.?
(4) Do you have access to a scanner with built-in OCR sofware?
(5) Do you have access to a high-speed laser quality printer?
If you answer all the above questions in the affirmative, the librarian will provide you with a sample of the typing format template (i.e., margin settings, font selection, page set up, etc.) in order to complete these projects.
The librarian will then place your name on a list of "certified" graduate typists. This "certified’ list will be given to various department heads so that any graduate student seeking your services can easily contact you directly from this list.
An average weekend income is about $300-$400 for two days of work.
Good luck!
