So you wonder what’s going on behind the scenes? While we continue censusing the companies who hire at-home workers, we are kick starting a new research: we aim to interview those who “did it”. Did what? Well, making a living by doing what they love for example, inventing a career which did not exist before, [...]

Reply from Convergys
20 May 2010 – 16:11
I finally received a reply from Convergys too. Well, “reply” is a big word as their message does not reply neither to my original query (“can you recommend companies who accept..” etc.), nor to my notification of being able to enter my account without a password, nor to their missed promise of replying by 24 [...]
Reply from Expert Business Development

Another record reply. Surprisingly, they have also accepted applications from Canada and UK… Uhm, I am now afraid they offer commission only opportunities but I cannot say as they do not specify it on their website. It is worth it investigate further…replied them, keep you posted.

Just native English speakers at Call Center International and just those resident in USA or Canada. In addition this is a commission-only job and a Internet Explorer only enrollment….sigh… I have written them asking for recommendations, as normal. Let’s see.
Live operator or verification agent at Voicelog
18 May 2010 – 15:23
Both positions are for independent contractors. To what concern the Live Operator roles, it is clear that Voicelog expects you to live in the USA: Do I have to live in the United States to be a Live Operator? Yes, you have to live in the United States to be a Live Operator. We are [...]
Convergys login system
18 May 2010 – 13:33
This is very weird: as in their autoreply, Convergys (similarly to West at home) gave me a reference number and a link to access my account and my question online, I went to the login page and – first surprise – the login is granted (2nd time I click on the login button) without asking for a [...]
Reply from West at Home
18 May 2010 – 12:44
Yes, they replied in record time, a few hours after my inquiry…..unfortunately just to confirm they hire in the USA only and they are unable to provide me with other referral as I feared. Please note that at today (3 days after my inquiries) this is the sole reply I got! Well, not a good [...]
