Day 1: Understanding Remote Jobs – A New Way of Working - ASAMBE!
Welcome to Day 1 of the 21-Day Remote Jobs Challenge!
We had a successful online launch yesterday, thanks to everyone who managed to attend.
Today, we begin by laying a foundation, understanding what remote job truly is.
A remote job is any role that allows you to work from a location outside a traditional office, most commonly from home, using digital tools and internet connectivity.
These jobs can be full-time, part-time, freelance or contractual across various fields such as customer service, digital marketing, software development, administration, education, and design.
Remote work is part of the digital economy, where value is created, delivered and earned online.
It’s a game-changer for youth seeking flexible, borderless income opportunities, especially in a country like South Africa, where unemployment remains high, but connectivity is growing.
The benefits of remote work are attractive: flexible hours, reduced transport costs, access to global job markets and a better work-life balance.
However, this freedom comes with its own set of challenges like self-discipline, managing distractions at home and the need for reliable internet and digital skills.
Lesser-known aspects include the importance of building an online professional presence (like LinkedIn), understanding time zone differences when working for international clients and learning how to communicate effectively using digital platforms.
Over the next 21 days, we will unpack these ideas and equip you with practical tools to not only understand remote work but also start earning in it.
Let’s build the future of work, one digital opportunity at a time!
A reminder to all participants.
