Yup, unless the OP provides more details on her skill sets, background, etc ...
The group bias (especially the younger readers) seems tilted to the notion that WFH
was invented during COVID and that all WFH 'jobs' are somehow high-tech in nature (even if it's just data entry).

Yup. The WFH scam has been around since the 80s that I'm aware of, probably even earlier. The most co.mon one is a newspaper ad ( yes back in those days we rely on newspaper employment ads) that titled.
WORK FROM HOME STUFFING ENVELOPES.
To apply for the job you had to send in $20, then you get instruction in mail that says
Put an ad in news paper that says " WORK FROM HOME STUFFING ENVELOPES" & ask for $20.

Ha! Is that what those were about? I remember seeing those ads as a kid and got so excited thinking I could 'get a job' and make money. I already had experience putting letters in envelopes, so it would be easy! My mom said no.

Yup. Dad has always been gullible, he fell for it and told me about it
There also used to be TV ads narrated by Sally Struthers (Archie Bunker's daughter) about taking correspondence courses through the mail to train yourself at home and in only six weeks (or some small time period) become certified for a professional job. Can you imagine actually doing that and handing your "certificate" to a potential employer? I'm sure plenty of people fell for it.

About twenty years ago, a woman in her 50s came in with something similar. It was from The Gibb school. I had no idea what she was talking about. The way, and how many times, she said you have thought it was a PhD from Harvard.
Speaking of earlier WAH (work @ home) jobs back in the day, I remember those ads for making jewelry from home. I think I tried it, but of course didn't do it long at all. THings have come a long way since then.
OP, just Google terms such as, work from home jobs, remote jobs, etc. plus so many youtubers have channels about it now.
