Hello,
Someone mentioned working for Cloud 10 and that they require a proof of resignation from West. Do you have to provide that documentation before they will hire you? I don't want to quit West, and then not get hired at Cloud....then I'm completely out of a job. Thanks in advance.

I applied since 01/27/08, and I just received email today stating my status has changed. I log on to the website to check my status and it says the following.......
"According to our records you are in a Hired status. You will receive a West at Home 'Welcome' email within one business day of your hire. One note: If you have not already done so, please be sure to submit any pending I9 documentation as soon as possible."
How long after this notice will someone contact you to start the process of working.

rsoler, Thanks for the info! I wish you well with Cloud10. So far I haven't been offered a schedule that does not conflict with my church activities, but hopefully soon. In the meantime, I've been contacted by Verafast. They seem super nice, and I'm hoping for the best.
mcapers, I applied 1/15/08 and am still waiting. Good luck to you!

Cloud10 is similar to West at Home, inbound customer service calls, working as an employee, not an independent contractor. BUT if you accept a job with Cloud10 you have to sign a non compete agreement, which means you can't work for any other similar company.

RO,
I haven't begun working for them yet. I sent my papers out late last week, and from what I understand it takes about 5 business days to process, so I'm hoping to hear from them by Friday. The lady I spoke with was very nice and friendly, she said that they are very flexible except that at least 9 of your required 15 hours a week must be in the evening. That is so you'll have the most opportunity of reaching people at home. Honestly, I hadn't thought to take an outbound calling job, but it seems so very simple, and the newspaper offer is excellent. (It's so much easier to push something that you believe in.) Good luck and let me know how it goes for you.

RO, Evidently each call gets coded according to how the call went. She said that the average that many people make for 15 hours is from $150 to $200. If that's true then I'll be very happy. She said it would take about a month at first to start seeing what your personal average is.
In addition to that, I found a forum with people who work for Verafast, and what I saw there is that you get paid .21 cents per credit. Each live call is at least one credit, so you do get paid something just for your call time even if the customer doesn't sign up for the paper. I don't yet know the details, though. It sounds like a good at home job. The advice on the forum was that as long as you spend your shift making calls (not up doing other things) you'll make good money. Also, evening and weekend hours are more successful because more people are home. When I hear from the company I'll send you my email address and let you know what I learn.

Hi, I'm trying to set up my password with West and can't seem to get it to work. It's my first time making a password and when I get to the screen that says it will open a new browser window, nothing happens. I don't have my pop-up blocker on or anything so I'm not sure what's up. Does anybody have any suggestions? I'd really appreciate any! Thanks

RO,
I heard from Verafast, I begin training on Wednesday. Have you heard anything from them yet? You can email me at bookwurmee at yahoo if you want more info. It still seems like a great opportunity.
Lynn

Hi all, I have been lurking around this site since February. All the comments have been extremely helpful. I have not heard anything from WEST but I have gotten 2 jobs. Verafast and WestAt. I completed my initial training with WestAt and now waiting on a project. I sent my paperwork back to Verafast and waiting for training. Although both of them are outbound, I figure it couldn't be too bad since you are selling anything. I also applied for Cloud10 and unfortunately they aren't hiring in my area. Thank you all for the info and may you all have continued success working at home. I am new to this and I hope all goes well.
