Although it seems like a virtual call center job could be done from anywhere in the U.S., unfortunately that is not necessarily the case. Very few work at home call center companies hire in all 50 states. Some states have a lot, while others (like Hawaii, unfortunately) have very few call center companies. This list is by no means definitive, but these call center companies hire for work at home jobs in Hawaii:
  • Apple At-Home Advisors
    Position type: Employee
    Costs: Possible equipment costs; though Apple provides a computer and phone.
    Apple At-Home is a work-at-home call center program from Apple that hires both college students and non-students for full- and part-time positions. It is part of the company's AppleCare support department. Use the keyword "home" in the company’s job database. These positions may require fluency in Japanese. Hires in Honolulu.

  • NEW Corp
    Position type: Employee
    Costs: No fee; possible equipment costs; home offices for call center jobs.
    Duration, hours: 20-40 hour/week, weekend and evenings required
    Geographic restrictions: New hires who live within 50 miles of a brick-and-mortar training site must train there; others can train virtually.
    Extended warranty company pays home-based customer care reps $9-10 per hour to take in-bound calls.

The company's clients include Best Buy, Lowe's DirecTV, Walmart, GameStop, AT&T and Gateway. Hires agents bilingual in Spanish/English also. More Bilingual Call Center Jobs

  • VIPdesk
    Costs: Possible equipment costs; home offices for call center jobs.
    Duration, hours: Offers full- and part-time hours but agents must commit to certain availabilities.
    Specializes in delivering concierge and virtual call center services for the "high-value customers" of its corporate clients. Its home-based agents handle customer requests via phone, e-mail, and chat and research and fulfill requests from customers in the United States and abroad. Fluency in English is required. Fluency in French, German, Spanish or Italian is a plus.

There aren't too many on the list for Hawaii but there could be others on this this list of call center companies that hire agents from Hawaii. Plus, these worldwide work-at-home jobs, though not necessarily call center jobs, hire just about everywhere.
