Are there any legitimate work-from-home companies?  I am looking for a
position with a real company that does not require up front fees - or
job sites that require a fee to search for a job.  I have a computer
and cable Internet.  My background is in people and call center
management.

Opportunities that involve the ability to work from home will vary a
lot from company-to-company. Are you looking for a researcher to
locate some companies that allow employees to work from home? If so,
how many companies? In any particular country(ies)/states or
provinces?

Thanks,

darrel-ga

Yes - I am looking for specific companies that offer work from home
positions.  The one exclusion is Sales/Telemarketing.  I live in
Colorado - but willing to work for any company in the world so long as
I do not have to relocate.

How many such companies are you wanting a researcher to find?

Hello Munkeyboy--

I have carefully researched your question and have your answer. I
found a listing of 1,000 freelance opportunities for you to consider
in your industry.

I searched a popular job site that I personally have used before and
can recommend. On this list you will find jobs that are
work-from-home. But you will have to weed through the list. Many will
require you to visit their offices.

You may also create your own search list based on your location, area
code, or other skills you have.

The site is http://4jobs.com

I typed in the following words to identify good opportunities for you:

(Goes in to professional spiel) Well, there's this fabulous service
called "Google Answers"...

Here's a question I answered previously for another customer with some
information you might find useful:
http://www.answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=73798

I would never advise anybody to work for AMA TransAM.  They have been
the source of many lawsuits for not paying people for their work
and/or selling a "kit" to train to work for them, then not hiring you
when you're finished.
