Tips for Finding Remote Order Clerk Positions

“Remote job” is a huge category, so the best path depends on what kind of work you mean.

What type of remote job are you trying to get (customer service, data entry, order clerk, admin, something else), and do you have experience doing it already?

If you tell me that plus your location/time zone, I can point you toward the right places and what to watch out for.

Remote jobs are competitive, but there are a few things that reliably increase your odds.

First, focus your search on roles that are genuinely remote-friendly (customer support, sales development, recruiting, marketing, accounting/bookkeeping, project coordination, data/analytics, software, design, and many operations roles). If you apply to jobs that are usually on-site, you’ll see a lot fewer true remote openings.

Second, make your resume “remote-ready.” Hiring managers want proof you can work independently, so highlight remote tools you’ve used (Slack/Teams/Zoom, Jira/Asana, CRMs or ticketing systems), and show results with numbers when you can (volume handled, response times, revenue supported, time saved, quality metrics).

Third, use filters strategically and apply early. Search “remote” plus the job title, and use “remote only/work from home” filters. Remote postings can get flooded fast, so earlier applications help.

Finally, don’t rely only on applications. Referrals matter a lot for remote roles. A short message to someone at a company that hires remote (asking who owns hiring for the team or whether they’d share insight on the role) often outperforms submitting 50 cold applications.

If you share what kind of work you’re targeting and your experience level, people can suggest the best job titles and keywords to search for remote roles in that lane.
