A data-entry job is one of the easiest entry-level jobs to qualify for: A big portion of the workforce is from the computer era, and knows how to use computers. The problem with looking for work-from-home data-entry sites is that many aren't legitimate and require payment to find work. There are, however, sites where you can find legitimate data-entry jobs that have no fees.

    Job Search Sites

  1. Job-search sites such as Career Builder and Randstad normally give you a place to fill in the type of job you're looking for and a city. The site then lists jobs in that area. Click on a job to find out how to apply. Some scams may post ads on career sites, though, so be careful.
  2. Newspaper

  3. A newspaper is a great place to find a data entry job. Data-entry jobs are often entry-level jobs that don't require a lot of experience, so most companies don't mind putting an ad in the newspaper. It is cheaper than hiring an agency to find employees. Some data-entry scams find their way into newspaper ads as well, so be careful.
  4. Telephone Book

  5. Leaf through just about any type of business in the phone book and think about whether that type of business would need information typed into forms. These businesses probably have data-entry jobs. Call and ask whether data-entry jobs are available. If not, keep them in mind for later if they do employ data-entry workers.
  6. Rat Race Rebellion

  7. Rat Race Rebellion is a website that searches the web looking for legitimate work-from-home opportunities, separating them from scams. Rat Race Rebellion estimates there are 57 scams for every legitimate online job. Rat Race Rebellion keeps a list of sites that are legit. Try the site's Administrative and Clerical section for data-entry opportunities.
