How To Search Craigslist For A Work At Home Job
If you are a long-time fan of the site craigslist.org, you know that it
contains a wealth of legitimate telecommuting jobs. The hard part, however,
is to actually find them! Here are two tricks I've learned after a few years
of trial and error.
Craigslist is broken down into city sections. Searching for a job that can
be worked from anywhere can be quite tedious, since you are limited to your
area when performing job searches.
So how do you perform a national search for telecommuting jobs from
Craigslist? I don't even actually go on the Craigslist site to perform
searches for telecommuting jobs! Here's what I do:
I use Google's search to pull up telecommuting listings at Craigslist. The
upside is that you have access to just about all of the jobs currently
listed on Craigslist. The downside? You have a lot of search pages to sift
through! The last search I did pulled up 69,000 pages! To perform a search,
go directly to google.com and type the following search phrase in:
site:craigslist.org "telecommuting is OK" Or you can use the following link
(be sure that the entire link gets pasted in your browser):
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1&as_qdr=all&q=+site%3Acraigslist.org+%22telecommuting+is+OK%22+&btnG=Search
You can also replace the keywords
"telecommuting is ok" with your own keywords.
Craiglist.org allows you to search multiple cities at Craigslist.org at one
time. This is a very nice search tool, however, I really don't know how long
the site will be up. Craigslist has a problem with other sites butting into
their searches. So far, so good. I'm hoping this site is here to stay. To
search, all you'll have to do is check "Jobs - telecommute" and select the
cities that you wish to search. You'll also need to enter a search term. I
choose "telecommute". The craiglist links to different
