What I’m looking for
Because the stroke has limited my mobility, it needs to be anything I can do on my computer at home.
And with an immediate start.
So, for now:
I can build websites (but it didn’t work as a business for me because there are too many places where you can get a website built for free, or nearly free. I can’t compete with free). But if you want specifics, I’m good with WordPress, Joomla, HTML, CSS, PHP, MS Office, I can set up and manage bulletin boards, shopping sites, etc.
I could work on a customer help line, I’m very good at problem solving. There are plenty of openings but they are inundated with applicants. I’m still trying this route though.
I would be great as a virtual PA. I can manage people and projects. I am a great organiser. I can do research on a whole range of topics. I’m very good at finding stuff! I could manage somebody’s social media presence.
I am creative. I can write and edit: articles, blogs, training material, you name it. I’m good with photoshop.
I am a fast learner and I work well under pressure. I have a vast amount of real-world experience which I can apply to just about any situation.
I have started learning about cybersecurity, but that is a long-term route. If someone would like to sponsor a course, could be up to £4-5000, that would be brilliant. This is what I have in mind: www.eccouncil.org/train-certify/certified-ethical-hacker
What I have done so far on that front is:
Level 2 Certificate in Principles of Cyber Security
Studying on Hack The Box Academy for Junior Cybersecurity Analyst role, 50% complete.

- Web Requests
