Seems like there might be quite a few moms that are working from home. Can anyone shed some light on some ideas for working from home? I'm goign to be moving to a very rural area on a ranch and am looking for some help getting into a work from home position possibly. I have a M.S. in Economics. Help please!

    I work for an insurance company. I unofficially work from home once a week. Good luck.

    I have always worked remotely some of the time and eventually ended up working from home full time after they closed my office locally.  I would prefer to go in two days a week as it is very isolating.

    I know many financial services firms are open to WFH, but typically do require that you start in an office.  If you can land a job locally before the move, perhaps you can onboard with the understanding you will work remotely after the move.

    Consulting is also another viable option.

    Health Insurance.  Most of the big 3 have WAH options and positions to fit all degree types.

    My DH is part time WFH. He's a freelance writer. He works another part time job outside of the home in the evenings though.

    I occasionally work from home. My office is very flexible. I'm in finance.

    I mainly work from home, when I'm not traveling.  I transitioned to this setup after being with my company for four years.  My husband had to relocate for a promotion, and it took me too far out of the way to work in my company's main office.  I came to them with a work from home / work from satellite office plan and they agreed.  I've been doing this for a few years, and I slowly transitioned from 1-2 days a week a home to a full work from home setup.  I travel 2-3 times a month.

    Would anyone mind sharing their employers names so I can have a place to possibly start? The big three health insurance companies? BCBS is really the only one i'm familiar with that is outside of South Dakota. Also - HR from home? can you tell me a little more about that? Thank you for all the wonderful information ladies, its so hard tranisition to something new...
