My telecommuting experience also began as an onsite contract position.
Management decided one day that they needed to make room for a new employee
and told me to leave. However, they also told me to pack up the company
workstation and all of the company support gear and move it to my home
office. I was telecommuting for them for about two years.

Since then, networking and referrals has supplied me with enough work to
keep telecommuting.

Most of the telecommuting jobs I've had started as onsite positions. I
created a business case for telecommuting, presented it to management, and
received approval to telecommute. First I had to establish trust, meeting
all deadlines, excelling in communications with other staff members and
SMEs, etc.

There are some websites that list telecommuting jobs, but I have not found
them helpful, personally.
