Are you looking for a job from home that has benefits? Even though they hire in certain states only, Asurion offers wah jobs with benefits, so you may want to check out their current openings and see if there are any near you.
Benefits of Working at Home With Asurion
Asurion hires you as an employee, as compared to being an independent contractor. So even though you work from home, you are still entitled to the same benefits of any regular employee of the company.
Other nice things about working for Asurion include working a set schedule every week, getting paid by the hour and also receiving paid training from home when you are hired!

Since the company provides technology protection and insurance programs, you will work at home answering incoming calls from people who have lost, stolen or broken wireless equipment ranging from wireless handsets to malfunctioning computers or HDTVs.
Your job as a customer service representative will be to offer assistance with insurance claims, electronics repair facilitation and even roadside assistance requests from customers.
