I decided to write some more tips about applying for and getting work at home jobs. I am now seeing why so many people fail! Yesterday I mentioned how one applicant stated they did not have a resume. Also, this week I sent out over thirty emails to other applicants who applied for a job. I asked them to respond if they were interested in a position I offered them, or if they were not interested in the position I offered them. I heard back from FIVE out of the thirty-three applicants!
You are not going to get a job that way! Another email came back to me stating their mail was full. If you are really looking for work, be responsive and be quick about it, before all the positions are filled!

Secondly, I am a supervisor/manager for two different companies, therefore I remember names! If I remember you did not respond to one of the companies I work for - I am definitely not going to think you are a good applicant for the other company I work for. Most work at home applicants apply for many jobs they see posted!

D0 not apply for a job just to see if you are going to get hired! You are wasting the time and energy of many people!

I want to mention if you are seriously seeking a work at home position - you do need a resume just as if you are searching for a job out of the home. I help with the hiring at one of the places I work for and told an applicant she was ready to proceed, but I still had not received her resume. I waited and no response. Finally, I sent another email. She responded with “I do not have a resume.” I was shocked. Why would you not have a resume in this day and age, when everyone out there is searching for jobs! After I sent her the first email, she should have put one together.

She will not go any further with the company I am with or probably anywhere else until she has a resume. Perhaps she does not have much work experience, and that is fine we want to know about her education and her background a little bit more.

Times are tough put something on paper, ANYTHING!

This does not pay a great deal, but I have read some good things about them on work at home board. Many workers have said they have some great opportunities once you get started and the love the job. The job only pays $8 an hour, but I guess if you do not have to leave your house and you weigh things out many people may find that not bad.

Here are some of their requirements:

Please send resume. Only candidates with resumes qualify.
Requirements:
Reliable attendance is required - no exceptions
Experience with inbound and outbound phone calls
Professional demeanor and work ethic
Type 30 words per minute
Excellent Communication Skills and Phone Etiquette
Minimum 1 year previous customer service or call center experience
Able to communicate effectively within the Team and Management
Effectively handle most calls in a timed manner
Work independently and in a team environment

A friend pointed out this cool site to me. http://www.ivetriedthat.com/
It is a website where you can read what people say about different websites and work at home jobs and report scams!
They list some jobs here and there, and then people can post warnings and such and what worries them about applying for certain jobs.

There are contests on there, free stuff and various other tips. My friend told about one of her work at home jobs and is receiving a free book! I thought that was pretty cool. I think it is worth a look, if you hear of a work at home job or if you think something is a scam and you want to scope it out first.

I have not had time to blog. I have been busy both at Idapted and Lifebushido. I have been helping out with the calling at Lifebushido. There is a great deal of work at Lifebushido, for anyone interested in warm calling. There are several different departments and several clients. You will be trained and can easily move up if you do a great job. If you are at  good sales there are great sales jobs also.

Spread the word!

Email jobs@lifebushido.com and ask about callers.
