Hi Friends,
Someone I know is losing reading vision to diabetes. She has worked on online marketing with almost 7 years of experience. What are work from home remote jobs possible for her and what are the places she can find those.
Honestly, fully remote IT jobs are going to countries with extremely low cost of living. Why pay someone in the West $40K/year when you can pay someone in the East $20K/year?<p>So a lot of "remote jobs" in the West have an in-person component or have strict language requirements (e.g. have to talk to customers, and the company wants to project being a US-based business).<p>Remote jobs that pay well enough are hard to come by for that reason. Plus a lot of people would love a fully remote job so they likely get a lot of highly qualified applicants when they do appear.<p>Sorry if this is unhelpful/not what you asked. Just trying to explain why finding these jobs isn't easier.
I worked at at place with a couple blind computer programmer types. I never talked to them to ask them how they did it, but they did it somehow, so I'm sure you can too.<p>I wish you the best.
Screen reading software might help your friend stay active in online marketing.<p>Here's an article from 2010:> <a href="http://gizmodo.com/5620079/giz-explains-how-blind-people-see-the-internet" rel="nofollow">http://gizmodo.com/5620079/giz-explains-how-blind-people-see...</a>
Take a look at <a href="https://github.com/lukasz-madon/awesome-remote-job" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/lukasz-madon/awesome-remote-job</a> for some resources. There are remote jobs out there but there aren't many.
Look for an onsite job with a .gov.<p>In some cities and states, they have the ability to hire disabled people without impact to their staffing/fill level. In New York, it's part of civil service law section 55b
Many places have vocational rehabilitation and employment offices as public services. That's not a bad place to start if it is available because connecting people with resources is what they do all day.
