If you want to work from home, many people have the assumption that most entry-level jobs require talking over the phone.

And, while there’s some truth to this, there are a lot of jobs that require no talking, only typing, either via a chat box in real-time or via email.  These jobs are out there, but you just need to know where to look.

That’s where this post will help you.

In today’s post, I wanted to talk about the many companies and resources that you can use if you want to solely want to work from home answering emails.  These jobs require no talking over the phone nor do you have to meet face to face.  It’s 100% remote work.

As with all of my guides, all of the companies I’m about to mention are 100% legit and should be one to consider if you like the idea of an email support job.  As a quick note, not all of these companies are hiring, but if you like what you see, I would bookmark that particular page and keep coming back until a listing is active.  Also, you may find that a lot of these jobs may require you to do much more than just email support, so keep that in mind as well.

20+ Email Support Jobs from Home

NOTE:  I tried to only include the larger companies that always seem to be hiring.  There are a lot of smaller companies that hire on occasions, but I will tell you how to find these opportunities near the end of the list.

Apple

If you want an entry-level job that seems to pay quite well, then Apple is one consider.   Yes, the company responsible for making iPhones, iPads, Macs, etc.

This job is highly coveted and so popular that I wrote about the job in detail in the past.  It’s one of the best on this list.

Basically, as an “at home” advisor, you will provide tech support over the phone, via chat and even through email.  Apple provides great training, offers benefits and the pay is quite competitive.

The job isn’t always readily available as they tend to hire in sprees, usually during the holidays, but to see if there are any openings today, you can check the link below.



Concentrix

Concentrix, a Fortune 500 company, focuses on providing outsourced business process services, acting as a middle man of sorts.

eBay

Throughout the world, eBay almost always has hundreds of work-from-home opportunities available, including many for its subsidiary, StubHub.

With most of these jobs, you do need to live 30 miles from the city mentioned in the ad, but seeing they have locations almost everywhere, it doesn’t hurt to at least see if there’s an active listing near you.  There’s a good chance there’s a location near you.

How to Find Smaller Companies

Consider Signing up With FlexJobs

I have mentioned FlexJobs quite a bit on a lot of many make money posts, and it’s for a very good reason.

In short, this premium service finds you the most recent, legitimate work-at-home jobs that are guaranteed to be scam-free, listing them all in an easy-to-read list.  It’s always updated and there’s something for everyone, even if you don’t have any experience.

You do have to pay a small fee to access the database, however, seeing there are a ton of scams in the industry, I found it very valuable to find thousands of honest jobs I didn’t know existed.  Worst case, you can sign up for a few dollars, get a job and then cancel once your job hunt is over with.  I promise you that it’s worth the money.

Check out Upwork

If you’re serious about working online as a freelancer in any industry, then Upwork.com should be at the top of your list to find a job.  In short, this website is designed to help you find jobs in almost any industry, including email support.   Being one of the larger names, you can find thousands of jobs or even create a profile so that potential employers can contact you.

While you will have to pay to use the platform, it’s usually worth the investment as jobs are added by the hour.  For instance, while I was writing this, there were more than 300+ email support jobs alone that you could apply to.  This didn’t include the thousands of virtual assistant-like roles.

Almost all of these jobs are often posted by smaller companies or entrepreneurs, but nonetheless, it’s an option to earn money while working from home.

I recommend you at least check the job portal out to see what’s out there. If you like what you see, then you can decide if it’s worth signing up for.



Use Indeed to Find Companies

A lot of the companies I already mentioned often hire email support agents, but sometimes, some legitimate companies only hire on occasions.

For this reason, I recommend you check out the internet’s largest job portal, Indeed.com.  If you’re unfamiliar with the website, it’s basically the Google of job searches.  Just type in the job you want and it pulls job listings from tens of thousands of companies worldwide, displaying the results in an easy-to-read format.

Since you’re looking for a remote job, most companies don’t care where you reside, so be sure to leave the zip code field blank to maximize your results.

In doing this, make sure you read the job description in its entirety to make sure it’s something that you’re comfortable applying for.

Final Thoughts

Today, a lot of your email support jobs are handled by staffing companies overseas, often in India or what you’re going to find out is that you have to do much more than just email.  While that shouldn’t deter you from finding this type of work, just let it be known that it’s quite hard to find something like this in the United States if you just want to email and that’s it.

Even if you find an email support role, it isn’t always just email as your company may ask you to perform other administrative duties as well, such as phone duties.  All jobs vary.

Aside from this guide, I also encourage you to check out a post I wrote in the past highlighting more than 100+ non-phone work-from-home jobs.  In this post, I give you many more ideas if you want more than just email support gigs.

There are a lot of non-talking jobs out there if that’s your thing, but you will just have to be diligent in your hunt to get something that suits your needs.  In some cases, you may have to just buckle up and do more than just email if you want to increase your chances at landing a gig.

If you found a job and/or you want to add a company to the list, then you’re more than welcome to email me via the contact form or comment below!

In the meantime, explore the many companies/websites above to hopefully find an at-home email support job that works for you.  Best of luck.

I have though worked jobs in my life before I became Disabled. I have looked so many places and either I’ve lost touch on how to search online and or where to look and find something legit , BBB. etc. Or am I just screwed? Or do you know of a legit , BBB company I could apply with that I may have to pay a small fee to be able to work the program and see some results. I’m not trying to become rich just to do something that would bring in a little more income? No sales, not talking on the phone if possible. The internet email advisor, or email chat to assist customers/people. Please help. Besides something in legal which I don’t want to do I know not what else to do. Hope I hear something back.
