I am looking for a part time job at home because my hrs vary at my regular job. I’d like to work at home because I do have children and I spend enough time away from home. I’d like to do customer service at home because that’s what I do anyway but are there any legitimate work at home companies?

There are many jobs you can do from home, but you have to realize that you are actually going to be working… from home. It can be very challenging, as there are sometimes a lot of distractions in the home that you wouldn’t have in an office.
Anyway, here is a list of legitimate companies that hire home-based workers:
* Alpine Access is a call center company that uses customer service representatives who work from home. Employees use their own telephones and computers. The company provides representatives for clients like Office Depot and J. Crew.
* Convergys hires home-based call center agents who provide support in customer service, and also supplies sales agents or help-desk staff for companies.
* Extended Presence provides its clients with outbound sales agents and marketing support staff who work from home.
* Internet Girl Friday provides information technology support as well as administrative services for clients nationwide.
* LiveOps provides customer service support for a variety of major corporations.
* Spheris provides support to medical professionals. Its services include medical transcription and clinical documentation.
* Staffcentrix supplies virtual assistants for business clients, including CEOs and upper management of major corporations.
* VIPDesk provides call center support and also offers a home-based concierge service to clients.
* Voicelog provides representatives to perform verifications for transactions done online or by telephone. Many states require changes to telephone service and other remote transactions to be verified by a third party, which VoiceLog provides.
* West At Home also hires home-based customer service agents. They cater to a specific range of industries, specializing in health care and pharmaceutical support, as well as the hospitality industry.
* ODesk is a free website that advertises home-based jobs and allows you to apply for thousands of different jobs in your area of expertise.
Please remember that there a MANY people out there looking for the same thing you are, so you have to have perseverance. But don’t give up! The more networking you do, and the more you get your resume out there, the better your chances of finding something. I did!

I would say 70% out there are scams. I have been working for Blue Print Marketing Group, since the beginning of the year. I am not a millionaire (and if you come across a company who says they can make you one

You might check this site out: I ran across this site a few weeks ago and I really like it. It does not cost anything to join and they deposit $10.00 into your account when you join. All you do is read advertisers emails and they pay you. Once you reach $25.00 They pay you, you won’t get super rich but you can make several hundred dollars per month for about an hour a day.

there are tasks that u need to perform against the money that is promised for each tasks. the more tasks u perform more money u earn.
Then there is a concept of minimum payout. Once you have earned that minimum amount by completing tasks, you are eligible for payment.
Once you are eligible for payment you are issued your payment on the next payment cycle which is monthly in most of the cases.

Hmmm… Be very wary of WAH opps. Most are scams, especially if they ask you to pay upfront for information!
