Data entry jobs that allow you to work from home often have titles like data entry technician and data entry clerk. In these remote, home-based roles, you may type content into a spreadsheet, update a database within the company's system, evaluate information as you add it, and resolve any discrepancies that appear. Remote data-entry jobs can be part-time or full-time. Some people in this position work exclusively with one company—often in sectors like health or finance—while part-time data entry clerks usually work with an agency that assigns tasks daily or weekly. Typing speed and typing accuracy are essential to success in this position.
