Part-Time Contract Jobs from Home

Contract jobs are another way you can work from home part-time without quitting your day job. As a contractor, you often get to work when you want and how you want as long as you turn work in on time.


Contract positions aren't as steady as employee positions but they're not as unpredictable as freelancing either they're a good mix of flexibility and reliability and the perfect alternative for someone who doesn't want to commit to a part-time employee position but also doesn't want to have to find their own work as a freelancer.


Pros of Contract Jobs from Home


    Work when you want Work as much as you can and when Company finds work for you

Cons of Contract Jobs from Home


    Work is often claimed on a first come first served basis Unpredictable earnings each week Contract can be terminated at any time and for any reason

I often get asked, What's the difference between freelancing and contracting? The short answer is this: As a freelancer you're in charge of finding your own clients, finishing work, and getting your clients to pay. When you contract, the company you contract with finds clients and handles payments, you just claim available work and submit it on time.


But remember, as a contractor, there might not always be work available. And your services can be terminated at any time and for any reason there's just no guarantee.


However, there's a quite a few opportunities to work from home part-time as a contractor. Two of the most popular options with plenty of work available include search engine evaluator and transcription.
