For this purpose, you need to know at least English or Turkish, and be willing to work. The minimum wage in the country is 9 885TL before taxes per month as of today. A residence permit does not give the right to work, you need to apply for a work visa.

Many companies recruit workers on a tourist visa or a residence permit, just because procurement of a work visa is added expenses for the employer. Until recently there have been no real control over this. This year, the government has decided to tighten control over illegal workers, so it becomes more difficult to work without official handling the formalities. Therefore, employers, as a rule, take on a trial period without a work visa, and if a person is suitable for his job, then they apply for a work visa for him. 

It's hard to find a job in the remote mode. It is much easier to search already on the spot. For young people, there is a good possibility to work part-time in one of the many casinos, for example, as a dealer (with training) or as a waiter. Good manual workers such as electricians, plumbers, auto mechanics, hairdressers, etc. also have a great chance of receiving orders from the local english-speaking diaspora.
