If you spend a lot of time in social media venues like Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn, or writing your blog, you may want to see if you can convert your hobby/interest into paid employment.
These jobs range in salary from $30,000/year to well over $100,000, depending on the level and the employer.
BEFORE YOU APPLY for any of these jobs, read the requirements!
If you don’t meet at least 80% of a job’s requirements, don’t waste your time applying. Find another posting that’s a better fit. Or, if there isn’t one that fits you, use the job descriptions to see where you might need to acquire skills and experience to fill any gaps – then launch your own self-improvement and education program.
