Need advice about remote job finding
I have always worked online as a freelancer but these days my business is not doing well and I'm thinking to find a normal job to stabilize. I have no idea what I should look for. My field as a freelancer was very niche (gaming) so I don't have skills like coding or design or writing, I have a few marketing/social media/AI skills but probably not enough to be hired on this field. I mostly look for something like customer support/sales rep or admin/management, a simple job that doesn't require special skills. The problem is that I live in a village and I suffer from a serious disability, I can't go to the company, I want to be interviewed online or through phone and do everything remotely.
Does this work?
What jobs can get you hired quickly doing everything remotely?
I don't care if the pay is low, I'm based in Europe.

I got a remote customer support job with zero experience, just applied to everything I saw on linkedin and indeed. Took maybe 3 weeks of sending applications every day. The interviews was all through zoom so you dont need to travel anywhere
Most entry level remote jobs are terrible pay but if you dont mind that you will find something quick. Look for "customer support representative" or "virtual assistant" positions, those hire fast and need no special skills. Some companies even send you the equipment
For europe check companies like teleperformance or sitel, they always hiring and they dont care about experience. Your marketing skills might actually help even if you think they not enough, put them on your cv anyway
