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’m in the same boat as you, BUT no one will def hire me because I am 8 months pregnant. I found this survey site that pays you to take surveys and complete offers. They give you $5 for joining and you only have to make $25 before they cut you a check. You won’t get rich off it, but every little bit helps and in the meantime you can keep looking 4 a job. I’ve made $55 so far in 2 days. Here’s the link…it’s absolutely free.

You might check this site out: http://earthptr.com/pages/index.php?refid=kanthony39us This is a PTR site (Paid To Read). You can join this for free and do not have to upgrade to member status if you don’t want to, but if you do they will send you more ads per day to make more money. Once you sign up they will give you 6-10 ads per day that will pay various amounts up to $1.00 and you only have to have the ad open for 20 seconds. I joined as a member and I am getting 40-50 ads per day, so joining as a member is worth it if you have the $99 to do so but not necessary. Anyway for an online business that is free this is worth checking out.

http://www.paysurveysites.com/ Its what I do and it’s worked out pretty well. What you have to do is complete surveys and offers for companies that want the public’s opinion. No payment from you is ever required, not to sign up, not EVER.
The sites don’t get paid directly from you, but when you complete an offer or survey, they also get paid a small portion of what you earned yourself. For example, if you complete a survey about computers let’s say, you would earn maybe $2 and the web site itself would recieve $0.50 from the company also for getting you to complete the survey. These surveys take little time at all, most taking up less than even 1 or 2 minutes of your time.
They don’t need any information other than your name, email address and your home address. Yup, that is all. No credit card information, no banking information, nothing like that. All they require is your name and address so that your cheque can be sent to your home every month.
Personally I have been a member of these websites, along with thousands of other satisfied users, for approximately 1.5 years now and have earned well over $8600 by working in my spare time. This web site has been great to me, also the members and administrator are very friendly, and are always there to help you with a question or problem you may be having. I give you my word that they pay.

Always REMEMBER…Any sites that Promise, that you will get RICH overnight … are SCAMS!!! Making MONEY on the Internet is not at all Quick or Easy. If it were everyone would be doing it, making millions of dollars a year from the comfort of their homes. If you are not willing to put in the time to learn the proper techniques there is no point in even considering it.
However, here’s an opportunity … for a Limited time Only…for just $1…get a 7 day trial ….and see first hand what the # 1 Rated (Legit)Money Making Site in the World has to offer its members.
