Most customer service jobs are going overseas, but this is a great website with only remote jobs that might be useful:

It's a relatively new site, but they're doing a great job.
Here are a some legitimate websites that provide work-from-home opportunities in online customer service and other fields:
Upwork - a freelancing platform where you can find customer service and other remote jobs.
FlexJobs - a job board that curates flexible and remote job listings from various industries, including customer service.
Amazon - offers virtual customer service positions where you can work from home.
Apple - hires remote advisors for their customer service department.
LiveOps - offers work-at-home opportunities for customer service representatives.
Sykes - provides virtual customer service positions for various industries.
Concentrix - offers remote positions for customer service representatives.
Working Solutions - hires remote workers for customer service, sales, and technical support positions.
Lionbridge - offers remote positions for customer service and other roles in various industries.
Kelly Services - offers work-from-home positions in various industries, including customer service.
While these websites are legitimate, it is still necessary to conduct your own research and due diligence before applying for any job opportunity. Always look for reviews and testimonials from current or former employees, and never give out personal information or pay any upfront fees to a potential employer.
My advice would be to identify recruiters (headhunters) in the industry in which you are experienced. These recruiters are well networked and are incentivized to find the right fit for you. It costs you nothing and they can match you up with your specific requirements.
The value of creating your own network of recruiters in the industry you serve is immense. I spent 30 years building that network. Anytime they contact me if I'm not interested or I'm not looking to hire, I always try to give them a lead or two. When I needed to find the next adventure they were eager to place me and put extra effort into marketing my skills.
Great thing is the larger your salary the more money the recruiter makes. They are really an amazing resource that's often overlooked.
If you haven't started building a strong network on LinkedIn I would highly recommend that also. It's a great way to keep your finger on the pulse of your industry and opportunity to find recruiters and other hiring managers.
Good luck in your pursuit. If you ever want to brainstorm I would be happy to hear your story.
Make it a great day!

Is it OK to end services or support when a customer did not pay the cost of services/support or did not renewal contract in software industry?
If I understand you correctly, you're saying a customer agreed to pay you for services (product and/or support), either through posted prices and a shrink-wrapped license or through a written contract, and then you provided those services, and then they didn't pay? And you're asking whether it's "OK" that they didn't pay? Of course it's not OK! Is there any business who could operate in that fashion? The way it affects the customer relationship is you don't have a customer relationship. You have a situation where they are taking advantage of you. A relationship goes in two directions.Jason CohenJC

Is there any job available?
What you want to offer? Keep in mind, Clarity is not a job board. For that, go to Indeed or related. If you're an expert in a particular field you can offer your advice here. If you hook up with people looking for what you have to offer, they will request a call with you and pay for by the minute. Just to be clear as it doesn't sound the right forum for what you are looking for.Gus AmaralGA

Starting a Startup, still in concept and idea phase, How to put what progress/accomplishments on resume?
This is a good route to take and the same one I took after leaving undergrad. An MBA is for the birds, anyways ;) First things first, take credit where credit is due! You're a founder now it sounds like, and you're working on your first MVP I'm guessing (hoping?) as well. At the very least, get together some sketches, etc... as well. You'll definitely want a prototype in order to feel "whole." So, more importantly, just list this startup's name as a part of your career in your resume as you would when working for any other company. When asked, be completely truthful, and let your exuberance and fascination with being a self starter shine through. These few factors alone will signal to any future employer that you would be a valuable asset to have on their team, but you may find that you enjoy working for yourself a bit too much before then ;) Have you setup a corporation or LLC yet? Or are you using a partnership (assuming this is all U.S. based)? Once you have your business' infrastructure in place, things will definitely feel more official as well. Also, be sure to incorporate NOW rather than later to avoid any major legal headaches. Feel free to message me any time if you'd like to chat further. Cheers, LaraLara LittlefieldLL

how to make google assistant ask a question 12 Replies
I am trying to figure out how to make the Google Assistant ask me a question when externally
I am not sure what you are trying to ask but if you are asking how to get your google assistant to ask questions (and act on the replies perhaps?). You do so by building Google Actions. Google Actions are just like mobile apps but is made available in Google Assistant when a user ask for a particular action via an Invocation such as Ok Google, Talk to Keep Count. The Google Action called Keep Count would then take over. There in the action you can program it so that the google assistant interact with the user via a series of question and replies. You can find out how to do Google Action by visiting the Google Assistant developer website at https://developers.google.com/assistant. Happy to jump on a call if you need more specific directions. I am an expert in the field of Voice Technology. You can also learn from live streams on twitch at twitch.tv/goldzulu. Hope that helps.VoiceTechGuy "Gold" ZuluV"
