There are no at home jobs in that or any other fields.

Most people have to work in dr. office’s doing medical transcription work to build up a client base and experience for years before ever getting to work from home. I would try to get a job at a doctor’s office to gain experience. Maybe after a year, you could ask about working from home part-time or even one day a week to start with. Good luck! That first job in any new career is tough because they all want experience… look for entry-level work and low paying jobs. Part-time work may be easier to come by as well because most people are looking for full-time employment.

You can’t. Regardless of education, no one will hire you to work at home without experience.

You can get job by networking in sites like http://www.mtstars.com and http://www.indeed.com etc or MT forums

It could be harder if you’ll take this job at home, for you to know it is more productive if you are under with company having medical transcriptionist rather than doing alone or at home. You may visit this site to know more from it.
