2nd Job

Options
In order to increase my income I'm looking at getting a second job. I'm lookong for something where I can work from home on a couple of evenings and over the weekend. I've notice a few companies advertising on line but I don't know how legitimate they are. Does anyone have any experience of any such companies? Can anyone recommend any companies to work for in such a capacity?

Thanks in advance,
Mike

    Even when they don't it's often a scam.

    Find your self an evening pub job or something similar.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.
  • Lionbridge, if they're still recruiting. You need to commit to 10 hours a week minimum and there are exams to pass before you're hired. There's a huge thread called Anyone else taking the Lionbridge exam this week. Hope this helps.

  • It is a genuine work from home job. Can't give many details due to signing a confidentiality agreement, like all people working for them. It's a min of 10 hours a week up to 20.

    Surely you can say what kind of work it is.

    Actually, no. It's not MI5 or anything like that, but you are not allowed to say what the roles entail. That's why no one knows what it is! I didn't until I applied and sat the exams.
