Remote technology jobs available for high school students?

As a high school student interested in tech, I'm curious about remote jobs I could start now. Are there entry-level tech jobs or internships that I can do remotely while still in school?

Hi there! It's definitely possible to get started in tech through remote work, even as a high school student. Many companies are increasingly open to hiring younger interns since most tech work can be done from anywhere with a computer and internet connection.

One main avenue you could consider is coding/programming. There are many freelance websites like Upwork and Fiverr where you can apply for entry-level programming or web development projects. Have some samples of your coding projects ready to showcase your abilities to potential employers.

If you're interested in data science or analytics, try looking for remote data entry jobs. These typically don't require high-level technical skills but can give you a good understanding of how data is used in real-world applications.

Social media management is another potential option. Plenty of small businesses are in need of someone tech-savvy to handle their online presence.

There's also User Testing—a platform where you can get paid to test and give feedback on different websites and apps. This can be a fun way to learn about usability and gain experiences in understanding various digital products.

Regarding internships, start-ups and non-profit organizations may have more opportunities for high school students, compared to larger companies. Keep checking sites like Internships.com or Indeed, and filter for remote positions.

Remember, the trick to finding any job or internship is to keep at it and apply to as many relevant positions as you can. Also, don't forget to leverage your network—teachers, parents, and friends may know of some opportunities for tech-savvy high school students. Good luck with your search!
