5 In-Demand Skills for Remote Workers this 2022:

1. Data Annotation

Although Artificial Intelligence has yet to achieve human-level understanding, the AI space is seeing rapid advancement towards providing machines with knowledge using Machine Learning methods that still depend on human intervention to deliver high-quality annotations for training AI, which results in a huge demand for human annotators. Annotation jobs, many of which are remote with flexible hours, might just be the perfect job while majority of people are still recovering from the effects of a global pandemic.

2. Web development

A developer is a big term for someone who knows about the nitty gritty of tech-related stuff, and it branches out in many other different categories. These can mean software, app development, web design, and more. This isn’t necessarily the easiest skill to learn as it takes an understanding of certain languages and a lot of practice. But it’s not impossible either. There are hundreds and hundreds of resources out there and you can start looking for work even at an entry level. Learning how to be a developer can reap good rewards — as it is high paying and definitely in demand in the time of the Internet.

3. Virtual Assistance

If you’re an organized person, why not try being a virtual assistant? This includes helping business owners manage their day to day tasks such as responding to emails, scheduling appointments, responding to customer inquiries, and more. The best thing about this is you can do all these from wherever you are! It’s a highly satisfying job that requires good managing skills and organization. All you need is a good internet connection!

4. Online marketing

Online marketing is popular because it can be fun and it is definitely one of the most sought-after. This includes being able to capture niche audiences through strategizing using its many different branches. This includes buzz words such as SEO, traffic generation, analytics, just to name a few. The great thing about online marketing is that you can be creative while also being analytical.

Finding resources to learn about online marketing isn’t difficult at all, either. There are several ways to get you started and it definitely helps that you are online a lot or know the latest about the Internet.

5. Design

Design is another exciting thing you can explore as a remote worker. If you’ve got an interest in good design, or if you think you’re good at presenting information in effective ways, then this might just be for you. This can include graphic design, animation, web design, logo making, UI and so much more! A lot of designers find their way in the industry through freelance jobs. The more you build your portfolio, the better chances of companies hiring you full-time as a designer.

If you’re afraid that you don’t particularly have any of these skills yet, there’s no need to feel intimidated. A lot of these skills can be learned online. There are short courses found everywhere, some of them you don’t even have to pay! Just invest some time in developing them and you’ll be good to go in that big universe of remote work.
