I am currently fielding a lot more responses to my resume than I had anticipated. But in my field, with my education and experience, it makes a lot of sense for me to be able to find remote work (software/engineering).

My neighbor has asked repeatedly for help in finding her work that she can do from home. She is a single mother of a child not quite old enough to stay at home. Her work experience comes almost exclusively from an on-site role with the Salvation Army.

I did make an attempt to receive alerts for something that matches her hospitality/general experience, but what does reach me through those alerts feels sketchy.

Is there really anything out there? Have companies really started moving away from call centers, for example, or would looking for something of that nature be a fool's endeavor, even now?

It seems unlikely, from my point of view, if one is not skilled in tech or is not a HIPAA-certified clerical worker who already has ties to some healthcare organization, or something along those lines. I hope for my neighbor's sake that I'm just too into my field to know what opportunities are opening up outside of it, so I'm reaching out to ask.

Thanks for your time/responses. #workfromhome #jobsearch #advice #bilingual
