Working from home tutorial by gcflearnfree.org
work at home Call center
work:Alpine Access- Agent requirements required include being
over 18, motivation, pleasant phone presence, a quiet working
environment, A Windows based PC, broadband Internet, a
corded headset and to go for a background check - you will pay $35
for this, but this is no different that paying for one when renting
an apartment. Arise: Same as above, for the most part. Convergys-
Again, same as above. LiveOps- Yet again, same qualifiers.
VirtuServe- Not just customer service and tech support, you may find
more restrictive hours and having to do telemarketing. VIPDesk-
Working as an agent with these guys will also mean working as a
virtual concierge and customer service rep. Specialized:Staffcentrix- After doing a bit more digging, it
appears that they do indeed help out those spouses who have loved
ones in the military, who wish to work from home. It’s a pretty cool
niche, although it does appear not everyone is going to qualify. Things to consider.If you have stay at home kids, the office
space had better be uninterrupted and sound proof.
None of these agencies will tolerate disturbances of this kind
whatsoever. You will have to fork over between $30-40 USD for a
background check/application fee. This is normal and to be expected.
Expect plenty of competition, especially with the coming recession.
Remember that you will be judged heavily on how you hand any testing
and phone interviews. So be on your toes, eat a good meal first and
be at your best. What about other work at home opportunities? For those of you with skills in PC Repair work, web design,
marketing, help with blogging (adsense) copy writing, etc - consider
the freelance websites available out there. With a little luck and
some looking, you will find freelancing to be both profitable and in
sketchy times head, easier to find that actual full time employment.
This is especially true for those looking to get into remote
computer repair work. Just takes a little searching to find the best
match out there. It may not be as cool as being paid to drive your
car, but it is not half bad.
Jobvertise.com often advertises work at home typists etc.
