    Hi @Bridget14 what field are you looking to work in? If you are unsure I would recommend anything digital - content marketing, digital PR etc. I know that some sales and customer service roles can also be done from home. It depends on your skill base. Hope this helps

    Hi RJHM thanks for taking time to reply.
    Digital work is line I am looking at. Problem is so many companies advertising and then when you click they are not what they appear.

    @Bridget14 my recommendation, having had previous experience with bad companies is to check out every company on glassdoor before going any further. If it sounds too good to be true more often than not it is.
