The FlexJobs Podcast: Career Advice & Job Search Tips

There can be a plethora of reasons for having no work experience. Maybe you just graduated. Perhaps you never entered the workforce because you got married and had children, and worked as a stay-at-home parent. Maybe you spent years taking care of a loved one at home.

Whatever the case, there are remote jobs out there that don’t require a ton of experience and could be a great fit for you. Making money from home doesn’t always mean you need a degree or years of experience.

When you have no work experience, it’s important to focus on your transferable skills—skills you can transfer easily one job or area of life to the next. Consider these common transferable skills you may have gained that you could use in a future remote job to make money at home:

Budgeting/money skills if you handled your family’s finances
Project managements skills if you oversaw school, family, or volunteer projects and schedules
Leadership skills if you’ve ever lead a project or person (think school projects or volunteer opportunities)
Communication skills if you have public speaking skills, are a great writer, lead any groups, etc.

FlexJobs features lots of jobs to help you make money online from home (We’ve been helping people work from home since 2007). In this episode, we'll cover 10 remote jobs that don't require any experience.

13 Remote Job Interview Questions to Prepare For

If you are a relative newcomer to the world of remote work, you might be wondering what types of work-from-home interview questions to expect.

Fortunately, we’ve got you covered on some common interview questions for remote jobs and ways to answer them.
We're covering 13 questions including:
1. Do you have previous experience working from home?
2. Why do you want to work remotely?
3. Tell me about your favorite/least favorite job.
4. What does your home office look like?
5. How do you/would you minimize distractions when you work from home?
6. Why do you want to work for our company?
7. How do you schedule/prioritize/stay motivated?
8. What do you like best/least about working from home?
9. How will you coordinate and communicate with your coworkers to ensure the work gets done efficiently?
10. What does your ideal day look like?
11. How do you like to work? Do you need a lot of direction?
12. Give me an example of a project in which you were involved from beginning to end.
13. Are you comfortable with not being around people all the time?

Preparing for a remote interview is, in many ways, no different than preparing for an in-person interview. Just like you would prepare answers to commonly asked interview questions, you can prepare answers for work-from-home interview questions, too, and ace the interview.

Sometimes, though, a little extra help is in order. Consider meeting with one of our career coaches. They can help you prepare answers to remote job interview questions so you can stand out from the rest of the pack!
