(NAPSI)-When it comes to finding a rewarding job, a growing number of people think there's no place like home. According to trend watcher Mark Penn, over 4 million Americans now work entirely from home and 20 million work from home part-time. Some say that tech jobs--such as programming or computer and smartphone repair-are particularly well suited to be part of this trend. For example, a leading provider of online technology services called Support.com recently announced that it is embarking on a campaign to hire more than 100 work-from-home online technology-solution engineers within the next 100 days. Prospective hires must be bright, self-motivated individuals who are already highly competent at fixing computers as well as syncing printers, smartphones and other consumer tech appliances. They're also likely to be the person who friends and relatives call when their computer goes on the blink. Upon an initial screening, Support.com applicants will undergo additional competency testing and, if selected, will be compensated to receive rigorous online training to ensure that they meet the "best in class" standards of technical aptitude and customer service developed by Support.com for its team of personal technology experts. "Our services are in greater demand than ever as consumers are looking to us to ensure their computers, printers and other critical devices such as digital cameras are operating efficiently," said Josh Pickus, president and chief executive officer of Support.com. "To meet this demand, we're seeking to hire individuals with the right tech experience and talent in areas where jobs have been scarce and we can make a positive impact on their recovery."
