\n\n\n\nNon-Tech Remote Jobs to Consider<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
1. Nurse and Doctors<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
You may have heard rumors of overworked and underpaid healthcare professionals in hospitals and clinics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
While that may be true in some cases, you should know that those aren\u2019t your only options. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Telemedicine, the process of giving consultations and check-ups online, has enabled nurses and doctors to work remotely now. Nurse-1-1<\/a> and MDLive<\/a>, for instance, hire healthcare professionals to provide online consultations to their users. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can become a Registered Nurse (RN) with just two years of education but more hospitals are starting to require nurses to complete a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN), which takes four years. The Institute of Medicine (IOM) wants 80% of nurses to have a BSN by 2020<\/a> because they think a four-year course would provide more knowledge to nurses and better patient experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Other Nursing Career Options:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
- Legal Nurse Consultant: these nurses consult in legal cases that involve medical information.<\/li>
- Nurse Educator: they design curriculum and training modules for nursing schools.<\/li>
- Nurse Researcher: A BSN is the minimum requirement for this role, but most companies prefer those with a Master of Science in Nursing (MSN).<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

2. Teach English (or Any Subject)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Teaching English online or through tutorial schools is a common job for nomads and foreigners who want to make money while traveling. In fact, English teaching jobs are one of the best non-technical jobs for online workers. It was popular even back in 2010 before the demand for remote marketing jobs started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Traveling might be a no-no right now, but you can still make good money teaching English online, while staying at home of course. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are so many English teaching jobs that there are now platforms and agencies hiring people with or without teaching qualifications. For example, ESLROK allows would-be tutors to upload resumes so interested students can contact them directly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pay ranges anywhere from $5 to $20+ per hour. Those with TEFL<\/a> (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) or other qualifications like an English<\/a> or International Studies degree<\/a> tend to get higher pay. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If English isn\u2019t your best subject, you can also teach math, science, or any other subject really. Check out Tutors.com<\/a> and Spires<\/a> for available job opportunities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Business Analyst or Risk Assessment Specialist <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Are numbers interesting to you? You can get a job as a business analyst or risk assessment specialist in the finance or tech industry with your skill set. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
With the rise of fintech, tech, and crypto companies, more businesses now are in need of mathematical geniuses to crunch numbers, evaluate market data, and identify risks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These remote finance jobs often require a background in business analysis, accounting, mathematics, or statistics. It\u2019s perfect for people who love spreadsheets and have an analytical mind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you\u2019re a fresh grad with a law or finance degree but don\u2019t want to work in a law firm or on Wall Street because of the insane hours, this job might be the perfect option for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Traders <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Unlike the other opportunities on this list, it\u2019s not easy to land remote finance jobs as a trader without prior experience or knowledge. Investment companies won\u2019t hire you without experience because they can\u2019t afford to risk their investor\u2019s money on someone with no background. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you have spare money, you can start trading yourself but that would only work if you take some courses or lessons on the subject first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5. Designer, Illustrator, or Animator <\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Many companies \u2014 not just the tech companies and startups\u2014 hire graphic designers for a myriad of design tasks. You can find jobs as an animator, logo designer, web designer, or even as a UX designer. Visual skills have a lot of sub-branches and industry applications, so there are plenty of jobs to choose from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Goodwall, for instance, has a team of designers to handle our website\u2019s images, the layout and images on our app, and any video content that we post. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
