Work from home students obtain remote jobs that can be performed at home or another location outside of the office. These virtual positions are often part-time or have flexible hours to allow the students to earn income and gain work experience while attending classes and managing their schoolwork. Examples of home-based opportunities available to students include social media account manager, website content writer, data entry clerk, and customer service representative. Students may only take on jobs over the summer when they are out of school or have a lighter school assignment load, while others may work during the school year.
