6 Legitimate Work-from-Home Opportunities to help Supplement your Income

I have 6 Work-from-Home opportunities that are indeed legitimate as either myself or someone I know has worked for that I would like to share with you.
As well as working here on Steemit, the following companies are an excellent way you can supplement your income from the comfort of your home or while you may be travelling.

Convergys
Krossover
Contract World Jobs
Sykes
Arise
Upwork

Let me give you some information on each of these companies as well as their website links so you can further investigate.

CONVERGYS http://www.convergys.com/
Convergy's is a huge company with many call centers throughout the world. They serve major companies such as AT&T and Direct TV to name a few. They have a "Home Agent" offering as well.
Home agents represent a huge talent pool with specialized skills, licenses, education, and certifications. Tapping into that talent pool can bring far greater scheduling flexibility, higher quality, more satisfied customers, improved business continuity, and reduced costs. Convergys’ home agent program combines the many advantages of home agent staffing with proven security, technology, compliance, and operational expertise for recruiting, training, coaching, and managing home agents. With extensive experience in both brick-and-mortar and home agent solutions, we can help you blend your home agent infrastructure into your physical contact center for a seamless operation.

I have worked for Convergys and I can tell you they are indeed a legitimate company. They offer intense training , a fair wage and your pay is directly deposited biweekly. No complaints or anything negative to say about them and they offer Inhouse or Home agent opportunities.

KROSSOVER https://krossover.com/
If you are interested in Sports then this is a great way to earn some extra income from the comfort of your home. I worked for Krossover as well and it was a great experience and I may consider working with them again during the basketball season.
Krossover is building solutions for smarter coaches and more efficient athletes that will give you the insight you need to get better. Win more games this season with full-service game film analysis, comprehensive statistics, and streamlined sharing tools that will get you ready to get your game on.
Krossover offers "Index" positions that allows you to work from home. What you basically do is analyze basketball, soccer, volleyball and football games both at the high school and college and sometimes professional levels.
Krossover offers paid training and you "index" the game from game film that is uploaded your account. Everything from shots taken, fouls, yardage, digs, turnovers, assists etc. You "tagged" the game, and this allows the coach to get all the important specs of the game at the touch of a button.
This is a great position and it pays you per game which takes about 2-3 hours to complete and you can index as many games as you like.

CONTRACT WORLD http://www.contractxchange.com/
The World Of Work-At–Home Contract Work Begins Here.
ContractWorld.jobs is the website at the center of the expanding world of contract work for home-based customer service agents. There’s nothing quite like it.
The site was first launched 6 years ago in Canada and now has over 50,000 members from all across North America, plus there’s also a thriving new UK based agent community at ContractWorld.co.uk.
Home-based agents are finding well-paid, interesting work from the growing list of virtual call centers who recruit on-line at ContractWorld.jobs.
Some of North America’s largest companies are recruiting right now and there’s certainly a lot more companies and contracts to come.
I also worked for Contract Worlds many years ago taking Pizza Hut orders. I worked a few hours a night and on the weekends and it was a fantastic way to supplement my income.

SYKES http://www.sykes.com/

SYKES has thrived for more than three decades doing one thing exceptionally well: helping people feel like they truly matter.

I recently had 2 job offers from Sykes but had to refuse them as I just don't have the time. I can assure you they are legitimate as I have friends that work with Sykes and they are very pleased with how they operate and what they offer.

ARISE http://www.arise.com/
Arise Virtual Solutions is raising the bar on customer care. Arise’s platform-as-a-service connects independent call center businesses to Fortune 500 and other large companies to provide on-demand customer service and superior business process outsourcing results through innovative cloud technology and crowdsourcing, delivering exceptional operational and cost efficiencies.

I have never worked for Sykes however, my sister-in-law does and she claims it is great platform to find Work-from-Home positions. I will say that I do understand that you have to pay Sykes to start up your account and for the training, so please do your research extensively before committing.

UPWORK https://www.upwork.com/
Anything that can be done on a computer – from web and mobile programming to graphic design – can be done on Upwork. Freelance experts can tackle a range of projects:

Big or small
Short or ongoing
Individual or team-based

Many of you have probably have heard of Upwork. This is a platform where you can find work or find workers. I have experience here as well and I am sure many of you who are looking for work can find it here. It is a great platform and offers many positions in many industries. If you do find a position Upwork will of course take a percentage of what a company pays you.

The importance here is to have an attractive profile and a quality resume as you are competing with several other people going after the same position.

Again, I have had experience with most of the platforms mentioned above and have family members who are currently working with the few I have not been a part of. I can assure you that they are indeed legitimate and a great way to supplement your income from the comfort of your home or remotely if you might be travelling.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me at your convenience.
