Almost any job that uses a desktop computer can also be done from home on a laptop. These positions are found in many industries, including marketing and advertising, finance, business, IT, and graphic design, and customer service. Remote administrative jobs can also be completed on a laptop, including data entry clerks, payroll and invoicing specialists, and bookkeepers. Specific responsibilities vary, depending on the company and industry in which you work. For example, those in a technical field such as online software development need to be proficient in various coding languages and be able to program software and IT tools for clients. Virtual editorial jobs, such as copy editors or proofreaders, require you to have expert knowledge of grammar and punctuation and strong attention to detail.
