What Work-From-Home/Remote Learning Jobs can I possibly work from a 6am-2pm or 7am-3pm schedule?

[InterestedNow]

I don't have coding skills, and when I tried to learn once through self-study at home it just didn't "click". If possible I want something that I can work from anywhere in the world. I have access to some tutorials and probably work-force/job-force type programs here in New York. What "skills" are easiest to learn. For now, I'm only seeking $20/hr (minimum).

Any idea on what fields would fit into all of this criteria, or something that I can study for 3-6 months that will give me the skills to find such a position?

Not tech related, but you can probably find a remote customer service job that might pay you around $20, that works around those hours EST. Or I mean, do you live on the west coast? Can try to work for an east coast company..

Do you have a decent enough head for numbers, outside of coding? You could probably get in a place as a jr. analyst/accountant. If you're looking closer to the $20/hr range, it's not like you'd need a CPA.

Appreciate your replies.

@badhat I'm not much of a numbers or tech guy. I'm more of a "words" guy. I'd be fine with taking 3-6 months to "learn" Marketing or SEO, but I would hate to learn it and then not even be able to get a job from that "skill-set".

@inndaskKy About Preply, I heard of it before, but never worked for them. I tried similar online teaching with other companies. The majority of tutors on those sites are making way less than $20/hr though.

@Sohh_lifted Any particular Customer Service company or site that you know of where I can actually try to tailor my hours? I know if I check Indeed and similar sites, they may mention Customer Service jobs, but I don't think they'll let me tailor my hours like that (or will they?).

1. Set up an alert on Indeed/LinkedIn with keywords like '100% remote' and 'call center' or whatever other role strikes your fancy. While you figure things out, you want to have feelers out there regardless
2. Go to the workforce training site and complete their course/proficiency test on Microsoft Office as most companies utilize that suite. Data processing/data entry is another area that is built for WFH and they may have tests on that as well. They can give you an overview of your current strengths and what kind of jobs you can target. They also might have some pipeline programs in place with companies as well.
3. Look at local temp agencies. Ask them what WFH skills are in demand nowadays and where you can leverage your skills. We can guesstimate in this thread, but the temp agenices have their ear to the ground and know what skills are in high demand & paying +$40K. The companies that are working through temp agencies have reduced exposure (often temp-to-perm and don't pay benefits) and so they are a little more flexible w/ their hiring if your resume isn't as stacked in my experience. Don't get too attached to temp agencies tho because they get a cut of your paycheck indefinitely until you become a permanent employee, so they have little motivation to be in your corner once you're placed in a role.
4. Call centers could be on your radar if you find one that is in a metro area and has a higher salary as a result. Look to leverage existing skills/interests with an industry of your choice. IE if you like numbers, look for call centers in the financial industry, etc

Might get more detailed info over @ 6 Certs/6 Figs btw

REALLY APPRECIATE the detailed response. I had to screenshot it. I'll have to read it more carefully once I get back home. Thanks.

I would hop on Linkedin playa, some of those jobs post the actual hours/shifts needed. Ive seen a few asking for 6-3, or 7-4 type shyt. When I hop on Linkedin next week, i can see what I find and ill share.
