Companies either utilize virtual call center agents themselves (i.e. Hilton Hotels, 1-800 Flowers) or contract to provide virtual call center telephone support for others.

Virtual call center agents may do telemarketing, customer service, third-party verification or technical support for in-bound or out-bound calls. Depending on employers, agents may provide only one service or their workload may vary.
Typically the virtual call center agent provides and maintains all home office equipment and services required to do the job.

Genworth Mortgage Insurance

Genworth Mortgage Insurance, a unit of Genworth Financial Inc., recently presented research showing that a majority of lending executives surveyed believe many eligible borrowers do not feel they can realistically purchase a home. The findings stem from a poll of 113 lending executives conducted at this year’s MBA Secondary Conference where this point of view was voiced by 66 percent of respondents. 
“Everything that private mortgage insurance stands for is about helping more borrowers become homeowners,” said Rohit Gupta, president and CEO of Genworth Mortgage Insurance. “Many qualified borrowers are uncertain about their own eligibility so it’s critical for our industry to be proactive about encouraging homebuyer education as a tool to help borrowers fully understand how the home buying process will work for them.”
Below are other key survey findings and, where statistically significant, the findings are broken out to compare broader industry perspectives to those of senior lending executives (CEO, president, managing director, senior vice president and executive vice president), who accounted for 42 percent of the total sample size. 

►Sixty-five percent of respondents believe it will take between one to three years for the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) to meet its required capital levels following its January 2015 premium reduction.
►Additionally, 88 percent of respondents do not foresee a major impact to FHA indemnification levels as a result of the premium reductions, believing they will either remain flat or increase by one to five percent over the next 12 months.   
►Whereas 53 percent of senior executive respondents believe their business will be impacted by the Private Mortgage Insurance Eligibility Requirements (PMIERS), only 38 percent of non-senior executives expressed the same concern. 
►Senior executives also showed more concern (44 percent) than the rest of the industry (37 percent) about the anticipated revisions to the PMIERs by the government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs) with regard to Lender Paid Mortgage Insurance (LPMI) premium plans.

"Our new Homebuyer Education Web site provides loan officers with a great, no-fee resource for helping borrowers with the home loan process whether mortgage insurance is needed or not,” said John Clifford, senior vice president of Commercial Operations at Genworth. “The more we can do to encourage them and their borrowers to prioritize homebuyer education, the easier it will be to achieve the goal of successful homeownership.”

3 Types of Bank Assignments

As a mystery shopper, you know you can find assignments in all types of public places. From restaurants and retail stores to gas stations, movie theaters, health clubs, and so much more. Many assignments leave mystery shoppers feeling flustered and stressed out. Grocery stores, retail stores, and even many restaurants are often just plain crowded, and there is nothing relaxing about wheeling your shopping cart through crowded grocery store aisles or doing a restaurant assignment during peak lunch times. For many mystery shoppers, a bank assignment usually can provide you with a great change of pace. Here’s what you need to know:

They find companies with assignments available, and send them straight to you.

Bank Teller Assignments. Often, bank assignments will have you deposit a check or cash into your account from the drive thru lanes. For this reason, this type of assignment is typically only available for people who already hold an account with the specified bank. When you perform this assignment, you don’t have to get out of your car, which makes it ideal to do on even the coldest days of winter. It’s also usually a fast assignment. Unless you hit the teller lanes at 5pm on a Friday afternoon or another peak payday time such as the 15^th or the last day of the month, you rarely have to wait behind more than a car or two at most banks. So you can be in and out of this site visit in a matter of minutes.
Open An Account. Some bank assignments will have you walk into a local bank branch and open a new account with a bank representative. With these assignments, sometimes you will be required to enter the bank without an appointment, and this can mean you have to wait quite some time for a representative to become available. Other assignments require you to make an appointment with a certain representative before your visit, and these assignments generally move pretty quickly. Keep in mind if you open a new checking or savings account, you typically have to have cash available to deposit into the account on that day. As a bonus, many banks offer free gifts for opening an account, such as cash, free movie tickets, or so forth, which is a great perk.
Question On An Account. As a variation of opening an account, another scenario that is common with bank assignments may involve you walking into a bank where you already have an account and asking a specific question about your accounts. You may be required to ask your question to the inside bank teller or to the bank representative. This type of assignment typically won’t take too much of your time unless you visit at a peak time for the bank.
These are just a few of the different types of bank assignments you may run across. Pay attention to the requirement for being a current account holder with the bank in question before you request the assignment. Typically, these assignments are a great change of pace from the norm because banks are often far less crowded than retail stores, restaurants, and so forth. In addition, you often have fewer requirements to fulfill on-site with this type of assignment, which makes them generally easier to do.

This company uses the SASSIE system to schedule and report shops, and pays via PayPal or check.

Company Overview: JM Ridgway has been in business since 1924!  While they don’t claim to be the oldest mystery shopping company, if they’re not, they’ve got to be right up there.  According to the company’s “About JM Ridgway,” the “core management team” of CEO Frank Kneisley and President/Sales Manager Scott Ridgway have a combined 80-plus years’ experience in the mystery shopping industry.

The company’s website states that they’re a member of the Mystery Shopping Provider’s Association.  No mention is made of a BBB membership or accreditation; and when I searched the BBB online, I was told that no match could be located.  Oddly, the MSPA website was not searchable to confirm membership of any mystery shopping provider company; not even from the “Member Companies” tab of their website.
The only complaints about JM Ridgway I found via websites such as ripoffreport.com or complaintboard.com, were regarding spammer’s fraudulent use of the JM Ridgway name and not the company itself.
This company uses the SASSIE system to schedule and report shops, and pays via PayPal or check.  According to their “Shopper FAQ”, the stated payment schedule is “no later then the 45th day after the completion of a shop”.  However, it says to allow an additional five to seven business days after that, for the payment to arrive regardless of payment method.  The page advises shoppers of who to contact within the company, with email address provided, if payment is not received by the 52nd day; and what information to include in your payment inquiry.
It also lets shoppers know that shops are paid in two separate payments:  shop fee and reimbursements.  This is a little different than other mystery shop companies, but not a big deal — just an oddity to note.  Interesting is this inclusion:  “Please do not inquire about why your shop doesn’t show as paid in Sassie.  It will be eventually.  There are several reasons why they aren’t marked paid for awhile that we are not going to take the space or time to explain, nor is it necessary.  Again, they will be eventually.  Thank you.”
For a time, this company suffered quite a bit from a reputation among shoppers of poor payment practices.  The stated payment schedule used to be 90 days, and almost without fail, shoppers reported having to email someone at the company to “remind” them that payment was due.  But in the last more-than-a-year, JM Ridgway has made vast improvements in this department:  They’ve not only shortened the stated payment schedule as outlined; but most importantly, they’ve started paying shoppers on time, every time; without being “reminded”.
General types of assignments & geographic regions in which assignments are available:
When I looked through the job board, I found jobs listed for 26 states.  There’s an option to search Canada and Ireland, along with the American Territories and Armed Forces; but I couldn’t find any jobs currently listed for any of those places.
Anyway, the jobs I found right now were:
* furniture stores — one predominantly, but also a second;
* two different mattress stores;
* alcohol compliance and integrity (currently only in Arizona);
* casual dining (currently only in California);
* a party supply store (but only in Maryland);
* storage facilities (currently only Georgia and Michigan, although I’ve seen these in other states as well via shop emails);
* apartments (currently only Louisiana and MInnesota);
* grocery stores.

I’ve also received job emails for jewelry/accessory stores, and recently started getting emails for BBQ grill mystery shops.
There’s a page on the company’s website of client case histories which include some other clients, including fitness facilities, jewelry repair, a transportation company (apparently buses), a “Major League Sports Franchise”, and a few clients identified only as “Specialty Retailers”.
One interesting job I found in a few different states, places the shopper undercover, working alongside a “head delivery and installation technician” to deliver and set up bed frames and mattresses in customers’ homes.  This is referred to as a “Mystery Helper”, rather than a “Mystery Shopper”. For this job, you are paid on an hourly basis by the client for your training time and labor, as well as paid by JM Ridgway for a report of your observations while on the job.  Qualifying for these jobs is a multi-step process including a background check and screening by both JM Ridgway and the client.  The client will then keep you on call for future assignments of this nature.
The company’s “Client Services” page relates that aside from “normal” mystery shops, such as those mentioned above; they also provide services in phone shops, video shops, video surveillance, background checks, worker’s comp fraud investigations, “undercover operatives”, and “ALL investigations needed”.  They also provide “Direct Customer Feedback Programs… gain feedback from customer and employees”.  This page also includes examples of the types of reports clients can expect from the SASSIE reporting system.
The company’s “Shopper Resources” page informs us that not all jobs get posted to the job board online.  Shoppers are encouraged to email schedulers with their location, to see if there are any non-posted jobs available in their area.  Besides checking the company’s job board, shoppers are also able to sign up for shop notification emails like with most SASSIE-based companies.
Unlike many mystery shop companies, in my experience at least, reviews of or grades for completed shops/reports are seldom received.  Shoppers will be contacted, of course, if there are questions or if clarifications are needed; but otherwise most of the time there is no post-shop communication.  You are able to save a PDF copy of your completed reports via the SASSIE reporting system.
Shop guidelines are generally well-written and non-redundant, but could be formatted with more white space for easier reading.  Included are all of the steps you’ll need to know to complete your shop, example scenarios, and advice of how shoppers can handle “off-script” occurrences (such as not being able to find an associate in a particular department).  Sample narratives are typically provided, including how to report odd circumstances.  Be sure to check not only the “Guidelines” link, but the printable version of the questionnaire — it often includes additional information.  (It would be nice to have everything all in one place.)
Shops themselves, in my experience at least, are pretty straight-forward.  Nothing too weird is expected, like the way some shops have various requirements that scream “Hey!  Look here!  I’m your mystery shopper today!”  One of the grocery shops I’ve done for them does require two questions of the associate — one for product knowledge and one for product location to see if they escort — but it’s easy enough to pull that off.
Pay is very fair and reasonable for what’s required, both during the shop and for the report.  Bonuses can get pretty decent for shops in difficult-to-fill locations.
All of the reports I’ve done are are well laid-out, in a logical order, with little to nothing in the way of repetitiveness or redundancy like some reports for other companies.  JM Ridgway want a reasonable amount of narrative, but nothing crazy.

Per shop guidelines, reports are always due by 9 AM on the day following the shop.  (Although I just found out while putting this review together, that the ICA states 24 hours, so… ???)  However, on a couple of occasions when I’ve needed an extension due to all-day routes, the scheduler has lengthened that 9 AM deadline once I explained the situation

Rapper Rick Ross and his bodyguard were arrested Wednesday morning

(CBS/AP) SHREVEPORT, La. - Rapper Rick Ross was a correctional officer before he hit it big in hip-hop. Now Ross is on the other side of the law after being arrested for marijuana possession in Louisiana.
Police spokesman Bill Goodin said Monday that Ross, whose real name is William Roberts II, was issued a misdemeanor summons and released after Friday night's arrest.
Roberts, known for such albums as "Teflon Don" and "Deeper Than Rap," was arrested after police responded to a complaint about the smell of marijuana at the Hilton Hotel.
Upon checking, Goodin said police confiscated 1 gram of what investigators believed to be marijuana.
Louisiana has some of the harshest marijuana laws in the nation, and the hip-hop star could face up to six months in prison.
An official with the rapper's record label did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
 

FAYETTEVILLE, Ga. -- Rapper Rick Ross and his bodyguard were arrested Wednesday morning on charges of kidnapping, aggravated assault and aggravated battery.
CBS affiliate WGCL in Atlanta reports the U.S. Marshals Service's Southeast Regional Fugitive Task Force assisted the Fayette County Sheriff's Office in arresting Ross, whose real name is William Leonard Roberts, and another man, Nadrian James, described as his bodyguard.
Ross and James were denied bond Wednesday morning, reports the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Police said the arrests stem from a report made on June 7 about an alleged assault at Ross' Fayette County home. Roberts forced a man into his Fayetteville guest house and held him in a bedroom for several hours, according to police.During that time, the victim was allegedly beaten with a handgun, according to court documents.
The victim, who has yet to be identified, has lost the use of his jaw and is unable to chew his own food. The victim also has two chipped teeth, a neck injury and numerous scratches and bruises, according to court documents.
Supervisory Inspector Tony Schilling of the U.S. Marshals Service Southeast Regional Fugitive Task Force told 48 Hours' Crimesider that Ross was cooperative during the arrest. The Fayette County Sheriff's department asked the Marshals to assist in serving the warrant, he said.
Details of the incident or incidents that led to the arrest are still forthcoming.
This is not Ross' first arrest. WGCL reports that Ross was arrested as recently as June 10 on a traffic violation and misdemeanor possession of marijuana. He was released from jail later that night.
In 2011, Ross was arrested for marijuana possession in Louisiana. He was issued a misdemeanor summons and released.
Ross and his bodyguard will be held at the Fayette County jail for an initial appearance and a bond hearing.
 

Rent To Own Homes

The Beginning

In the summer of 2007 Frank Garay was running a net branch for a mortgage company in Vacaville CA.  He had about 50 MLO’s working for him and his partner Leo Schrupp.  The mortgage industry was at the beginning of its now famous collapse.  As business started falling off he knew he needed a way to motivate his salespeople to get more business in the door or things were going to go very bad for his branch.  He tried sales meetings only to find that the salespeople who showed up for the meetings were those that didn’t need it!  The people who seemed to need it the most somehow were always “busy” and unable to attend.
Not to be discouraged he sought out another way to communicate with his struggling loan originators.  One of his co-workers and friend told him to try a webinar.  After Frank learned what a webinar was, he thought it might work and gave it a try.  Although the attendance was better, it still lacked as it seemed some of his salespeople still couldn’t attend due to schedule conflicts.  He also didn’t like the fact that he couldn’t see the attendees.  When his co-worker asked how it was going he told her he wished he could see them so he could give a better presentation.  She suggested getting a webcam so they could at least see him, which he did.
On his third and final webinar with attendance still lacking, under the crushing pressure of the collapsing mortgage market he was at his wits end.  He felt if he communicated what they needed to do it might sink in, and there might be hope for his branch.  That webinar was on July 1st 2007.  After the webinar Frank sat in silence starring at his computer monitor.  Then his eyes shifted to the new webcam.  He remembered when he installed it that the software which came with it allowed you to record a video and email it.  Suddenly there was a glimmer of hope.  He thought if he could make a little video and email it to his salespeople they could watch it on their own time, and hopefully the message would motivate them to make some changes in their habits so they could start originating some loans.
o on July 2nd 2007 Frank made his first video.  He made the video with his brother who worked for him, Patrick Vogelpohl.  He wanted it short and humors but with a solid positive message.  The video was made and sent out to his 50 salespeople and by the end of the day there were over 50 views on it.  At that very moment Frank was inspired to do a mortgage sales motivation video every day.  After a few shows Frank and Patrick started introducing a little industry news with the sales tip and they called the show “The Daily Patrick”.

Think Big Work Small

Two weeks later Frank decided to change the name of the show to the TBWS Daily Show.  TBWS stands for Think Big Work Small which was the name of an automated open house flyer program that Frank and his partner Leo had just launched.  He wasn’t sure how the show would tie into the product but he liked the name and on July 16th 2007 the TBWS Daily Show was born.

Work From Home Job's

I’m a pretty average gal. I kind of do my own thing of which some seem relatively productive and others not so much. And a lot like other people, and I guess different from others then, I have a lot of different interests. I’m a full subscriber to the variety being the spice of life adage. With so many interests (some even approach full-blown passion), you’d think that it’d be fairly easy to find myself a job that put food on the table clothes on my back and left a little in my pocket for weekend skullduggery; and I mean something that really tickled my fancy and had me jumping out of bed five minutes before my alarm goes off.

But that simply has not been the case. It may not help that a large slice of these interests are Caligulan in nature. Not only do I digress, I also have reason to believe that one of these interests may be piqued with paycheck in tow.

Work at home online jobs has got my name written all over it. Granted, I’m not exactly sure what these employers from the heavens are wanting me to do online, as there a fairly wide variety of topics covered. But, that’s besides the point. What I’m talking about is waking up, or not even going to sleep, rolling over and that right there is me punching in—if I qualify for my work at home online job.

So, if you’d prefer to continue doing what you’ve been doing while procrastinating your actual job search and take home a couple of dollars, grab yourself an online job and work at home.

You’ll be searching, browsing and exploring the internet just like you do now, but probably with slightly greater restrictions than your current fear of breaking federal laws provides.

The at-home work force is increasing

The at-home work force is increasing exponentially every year. As more and more people begin working from home, the lines and definitions between jobs and a business are beginning to get blurred. But, there is a difference between a home business and a work-at-home job. Keep reading for a clear outline of these basic distinctions.

Basically, a home based business is any business where the primary office is located in someone’s home – usually the owner’s. In fact, most companies start out this way – from simple tinkering in the garage to typing away in the spare room. From Microsoft to Ben & Jerry’s, many successful business got their start the home-based way. If you are planning on launching your own home business and being your own boss, make sure that it’s legal. While most zoning laws won’t crack down on a basic home office, they will lay down the law when it comes to a noisy auto repair business, illegal daycare or opening a store-front on your lawn.

 

 Once your home-based business begins to earn income, you will need to begin thinking about registering your business, filing business taxes, and essentially running your home-based business in a legal and professional manner.

Meanwhile, a work-at-home job is a little different. Unlike a business where you manage yourself, in an at-home job you are responsible to a supervisor. Whether you do legal transcription, bookkeeping, fund raising, customer service, programming, or web design – if you are working solely for an outside business, a business with offices outside of your home, then you are working an at-home job. A work-at-home job may allow you to direct your hours and workspace, but the essential control and direction of the business will be out of your hands and that is the primary difference between a home business and a work-at-home job.
