Probably the largest and fastest-growing remote employee/freelancing industry, experienced IT personnel who once had to rely on the efforts of recuriters and employement agencies are now writing their own paychecks and working from home doing everything from Web authoring and programming to inbound help desk support. Yes, the virtual call center also extends to the IT field and if you have demonstrable experience in any of these areas, opportunities are abundant no matter where you live.

We’re betting you didn’t know that Apple is one of the biggest hirers of remote contract IT employees and support staff on the planet, along with companies like Xerox, SAP, SalesForce, and many, many more. Got mad IT skills? You’re hired (and the pay is great)!
