What is a virtual call center?
Virtual call centers are call centers where the agents taking the calls do not work in an office together but instead all work remotely from home. Some well-known companies such as 1800Flowers, Uhaul, Nordstrom, and Disney offer virtual call center jobs from home but still obviously have office where they house other employees. This allows the company to save money in several different ways and allows those looking for a remote job to work for a well established company.
Other companies such as Sitel, West at Home, and Working Solutions are actual virtual call center companies. These types of companies contract with other companies to run their virtual call center on their behalf. With some of these companies you may be taking calls for multiple clients or may not find out which client you will be assigned to until after you have been hired.
