5. Legal Coding Typing Jobs
If you have an interest in the legal system and have good organisational skills, a career as a legal coder may be one of the best typing jobs for you! As a legal coder, your role would involve entering keywords into a document which makes it searchable, so attorneys and paralegals can use them for their court cases.

To become a legal coder, you will need to have strong reading skills and be computer savvy. Legal coders are one of those typing jobs that you can also do from the comfort of your own home.
4. Online Chat Agent Typing Jobs
Online chat agents are one of those typing jobs where they answer questions and queries from customers. It puts you right in front of the customers and gives you the opportunity to have an open conversation with them. This is by communicating through a company’s online chat platform and speaking to customers who come onto their website.
Here at TalentMed, we use our own online chat agents to provide one-on-one assistance to both prospective and current students. Our qualified trainers are also available for students online via Live Chat throughout their course. They enjoy answering enquiries and helping students with any questions they have. Sometimes, these typing jobs will require you to have a background in a particular area, such as technical support. However, as most positions are for general support, they usually don’t require any prior knowledge or skills.
3. Self-employed Writer Typing Jobs
If you have a passion for writing, you can start a career as a writer. They usually work on a self-employed basis, which means that you can write for multiple companies.
Self-employed writers have one of the most creative typing jobs! Firstly, you have the chance to share your opinion and write reviews of books, restaurants, fashion, movies – the list is endless! Secondly, you can write newsletters or articles for magazines or newspapers on different topics such as travel, recipes, and recent news events. Lastly, you can give yourself the freedom to write your own content. All you need to do is to create your own website and start writing. This provides you with the opportunity to write about topics that you’re really passionate about and educate others.
You can use social media platforms to market yourself. Usually, a writer is one of those typing jobs where you don’t have to be qualified or hold a degree. Therefore, if you enjoy writing, becoming a freelance writer is a great career path to take!
2. Data Entry Typing Jobs
Data entry involves taking data provided by a company and entering it into a system or spreadsheet. It also may include resolving inconsistent information and filling in the blanks for incomplete documents. For example, you could be entering payroll items into a system for employers, and compiling lists of customer interactions for businesses.
Data entry is one of those typing jobs that usually don’t require you to have a qualification. However, there are skills that you may be expected to have in order to perform this role efficiently. These may include:
Good computer skills
Attention to detail

I worked in a medical practice for close to 30 years so I have a sound knowledge of medical terminology.
I retired a few years ago but my pension is not enough to live on as I still have a mortgage.
I’m in sound health and my children are all grown and I am single. I have no demands on my time.
I have been looking for work but this suits me so much better. I have a home office already set up!
I hope you will consider me.
