These days, technology gives many people the amazing ability to work from home — a perk that proved to be even more crucial than ever before during the COVID-19 pandemic. Challenging worldwide traumas aside, telecommuting has always been an environmentally friendly option that has gone largely unused — until 2020. It keeps cars off the roads, and it gives employees more freedom and flexibility to do their jobs, increasing their productivity and job satisfaction.

Many jobs now allow employees to work from home for all or part of the work week, but if you're interested in a job that always lets you work from home without worrying about resuming an office routine someday, you're in luck. To find the right work-from-home job, make sure you're applying for jobs with legitimate companies, rather than companies promoting questionable methods they claim will make you rich. When you're ready to take a serious look, start with some of the most reputable companies that offer legitimate work-from-home jobs.

Amazon

If you're like a lot of people, you probably do a great deal of shopping on Amazon these days. Why not work there instead? Amazon has an impressive array of remote and virtual jobs, and many of them include some nice benefits. For years, the majority of Amazon's work-from-home positions were customer service jobs. That is still one of your options, but plenty of other opportunities are now available to work for Amazon from home.

From transcription assignments that power Alexa to delivery jobs and engineering and marketing positions, Amazon offers an array of premium work-from-home roles. The chances are better than ever before that you can find a job that you'll love that also suits your skill set.

Liveops

When you think of jobs that allow you to work from home, call center jobs probably spring to mind most often. Liveops is a leader in call center employment opportunities. This company treats its call center operators as independent contractors, so, in a way, you're your own boss. Liveops gives you the opportunity to work from home or anywhere else that's quiet.

The cloud-based call center works with hundreds of businesses, which makes it easier for you to find a work-from-home call center assignment in an industry that interests you. From taking food orders to assisting stranded motorists to answering insurance questions, you can take advantage of a ton of opportunities to control your schedule and your niche when you work for Liveops.

Dell

You know the Dell name for its computers ― and probably for its goofy commercials from a few years ago ― but did you know that this company is working to increase its number of employees who work from home? If you're technologically savvy, you might be able to snag a job with Dell that allows you to work remotely.

Existing employees praise Dell's leadership for its commitment to work-life balance, and the company's remote work opportunities are ideal if you want a job in software engineering, customer service or sales. As Dell continues to commit to hiring employees who want to work from home, chances are good you can find a position that's right for you if you have one of these skill sets.

UnitedHealth Group

If you're looking for a job in the healthcare industry that allows you to work from home on your own schedule, you definitely want to check out the offerings at UnitedHealth Group. UnitedHealth provides health insurance benefits to companies along with Medicare and Medicaid options, and it offers plenty of telecommuting jobs to handle all the related responsibilities of managing those networks.

Some of the work-from-home positions that UnitedHealth Group offers are in actual health fields, such as after-hours nurses and behavioral health specialists, but many are sales, support and coaching jobs that allow you to work remotely. As you might expect, a health insurance company offers great benefits to its telecommuting employees.

Boldly

One of the more innovative niche enterprises in our technological economy is the virtual assistant industry. Many companies provide virtual assistants for executives and corporations, and Boldly is a leader among them. It offers competitive pay, paid holidays, paid parental leave and plenty of flexibility.

With Boldly, you can work from home as an executive assistant, paralegal or social media specialist. The company offers training and mentorship and works diligently to pair you with a business that's a good fit. Best of all, you're a W-2 employee and not an independent contractor. That means you qualify for certain benefits, and tax time is generally less of a hassle.

VIPKid

If you've ever been interested in teaching or tutoring kids online, VIPKid offers a great opportunity to fulfill that dream. Based in China, the company provides online tutors for students who are learning to speak English. You need a bachelor's degree and some formal or informal teaching experience, but VIPKid provides you with all the materials you need to tutor kids once you're hired.

One major advantage of VIPKid is relatively high pay for a tutoring gig ― typically between $14 and $22 an hour — with additional incentives at certain times of year. Another bonus is the ability to create your own schedule. On top of the necessary credentials, you have to undergo a video interview to determine if you have the personality to work with kids, but otherwise it's a relatively easy process to get on board with the company.
