Hello Friends,
Just wondering if there are any kind of IT jobs, which could be done from home, instead of relocating! Any idea?
Thanks.
Almost any IT job can be worked from home..
I don't think we have to go to work for most of the work.. nowadays my company has been encouraging ppl to work from home .. so that they don't have to lease a bigger office space.

Some of the contract work with the federal govt is one of the options. I know couple of guys in GTA who do that.

For federal govt contracts, is it mandatory for contactors to be a Canadian citizen with different levels of security clearance?
Even if answer to above is yes or no, what is the best source (online or otherwise) to look for such kind of contractual assignments?
Pls reply.
Thanks.

That seems to be when u r already working for a company... and then prefer to work from home. Is it so?
If not, what is the best resource to look for such assignments? As normally the job ads (at monster.ca, workopolis.ca etc) needs relocation!

I just checked and was told that contractors dont need clearance (agency people do need clearance).
wrt to citizenship, I have no idea. The individuals I know in GTA are citizens.
Talk to individuals who work for the govt (both provincial and federal). Also see if you can do some subcontracting for firms who are govt contractors (on a need basis).

Well i do work from home.. but still my company requires me to be within the GTA area.. i can't move anywhere far.. I have to be able to reach office for work in case my internet connection doesn't work..
