Most customer service and telemarking work at home positions do require that you have a quiet place to work. Background noises such as children, music, television or pets is generally not tolerated. Most companies will want you to use a corded phone and internet connection, not wireless.
Note: I do not know which companies are hiring at this time. This is merely a list of companies that at the time I visited them hired employees to work at home. I am not responsible for any changes to the sites, company policies or job offerings. Don't tell me you want to apply for one of these jobs; I'm not the one hiring. Websites may change ownership at any time, so do your due diligence to be certain that you're applying with a legitimate company no matter where you see it listed.
Please pay attention to all job requirements. It's a waste of time to apply for jobs that you aren't remotely qualified for.

All Time Favorites
Wide range of possible work at home jobs . An event planning company. Projects may include billing and collecting, general customer service, helping vendors, bookkeeping, graphics design and more, depending on your skills and interests.
Alpine Access
Must be able to work minimum 20-30 hours per week. You are an employee rather than independent contractor and get paid by the hour rather than by talk time. Must be able to call Golden, CO without excessive phone bills, so if you live outside that area a flat rate long distance service is strongly recommended. Read the FAQ before applying. Alpine Access drug testing fee is $45 and they will send you to a clinic to do a hair drug test.
Arise (Formerly Willow CSN)
Take inbound customer service or sales calls for clients. This is one of the more expensive companies to work for, as there is the background check fee, requires incorporation, a dedicated phone line and you have to pay for training. I would call it in many ways more a business opportunity than a work at home job.
