One of the most increasingly popular work from home jobs in the Philippines are data entry jobs. The job description for data entry specialists includes digitizing data, ensuring accuracy, correcting errors, and managing data flow.

Because of their skills, data entry specialists can work in various industries, from the corporate world to the medical sector.

The question now is, where should you start sending your resume? To help you answer this question, here are six industries where remote data entry jobs are in-demand.

Healthcare

Healthcare

Even before the pandemic, data entry specialists have been in-demand in the healthcare sector. They’re responsible for recording patient records, check-up schedules, and other information and storing them in the correct databases.

One common data entry job in the medical sector is medical transcription. Medical transcriptionists are responsible for converting voice recordings of doctors and other medical personnel into written reports.

Another common task in this field is medical coding. This involves converting healthcare diagnoses, procedures, medical services, and equipment into universal medical alphanumeric codes. They ensure these codes are applied correctly during the billing process to avoid any issues.

Because your work requires familiarity with medical jargon, getting a few medical dictionaries would be wise. These allow you to know what an unfamiliar medical term means so you can transcribe them correctly.

E-commerce

E-commerce.

One of the biggest and fastest-growing retail sectors is the E-commerce sector. To keep up with customer demand, business owners require the assistance of data entry specialists to manage online inventories and keep their online stores updated.

Additionally, depending on your client’s business, you may be required to create detailed product listings. As well as shipping information and descriptions.

Having a data entry specialist helps business owners save time and effort in developing and maintaining their online stores. It allows them to focus on other tasks while you do the more tedious ones.

Real Estate

Real Estate.

Since this industry requires sorting through countless data from various sources, it’s no surprise that data entry jobs are in-demand in the real estate sector. These data include property listings and valuation details, reports on sales and commissions, and legal reports.

Data entry specialists are responsible for arranging and storing these data in the correct databases so their clients can use them. They also ensure that these data are easily accessible and updated.

Despite sounding simple enough, the sheer volume of data could be challenging for beginner data entry specialists.

Banking and Finance

Banking and Finance.

Another industry where data entry jobs are in-demand is banking and finance. Few fields require delicate and precise data storage and processing more than this industry.

As more and more businesses go online, they’ve also shifted their banking to the digital world as well. So besides your skills, banking companies expect you to be reliable and trustworthy, as you’ll be handling sensitive data. This sensitive data includes client information, banking details, financial transactions, etc.

They must ensure this information is accurate and free of errors, as there will be severe repercussions for the slightest mistakes.

Logistics

Logistics.

Given how complex the operations of a logistics company are, they’ll need efficient and accurate databases. This will allow them to streamline their operations and avoid any issues, as even a small one can snowball into a bigger problem if unchecked.

But since organizing these data can be tedious, most logistics companies prefer hiring data entry specialists to handle these tasks. You’ll be responsible for managing your client’s inventories, encoding order processing and fulfillment papers, and making inventory reports.

Legal Firms

Legal Firms.

Another industry that has to deal with mountains of data are legal firms. And with this comes the need to digitize these data and store them. Here is where data entry specialists will come in.

Having a data entry specialist lets law firms focus on other tasks and have an easier time analyzing data. They’re responsible for researching and updating discrepancies in data or missing information and arranging and storing them.

As with the healthcare industry, you should consult legal dictionaries and cases to familiarize yourself with legal jargon. With these, you’ll have an easier time transcribing, arranging, and storing data.

Work Anywhere, Literally!

Work Anywhere, Literally!
