Question
Arlene,

I am seeking your professional advice and expertise on work-at-home or
telecommuting jobs both full and part-time.

I am re-locating across country to the Atlanta, GA area. I am anxious to make
this move happen as soon as possible but I have not secured employment in
my new location as of yet and not exactly sure when I will. I am primarily
moving for family and lifestyle reasons.

I still have a number of issues to settle such as fixing and selling my house on
the West Coast and may have to keep my schedule and commitments flexible
to get everything done that I need to on both coasts for the next few months.

I am looking for a part-time or possibly full-time telecommuting job that
would bring in some income that I could live on for a period of time while I
complete this move. I would like to find a position that would allow me to
work a lot when I have the free time and work less when I need to travel back
and forth.

I have a degree, skills and experience in the writing field and I am also
experienced in sales, marketing and public relations work. I would really
appreciate any assistance or guidance you could offer on how I could find
some job prospects that would allow me to work at home on my
computer/telephone/fax, etc.

Can you recommend where and how would begin to find these types of jobs?
Do you feel that is possible to have a position where it would be possible to
work more when time is available? Is that a realistic expectation?

Thank you very much for your assistance. I look forward to hearing back
from you. Best wishes.

Scott
