The recent changes in the economy, specifically the US to Canadian dollar, are hitting Canadian call centers pretty hard. Convergys, a company that has standard brick and mortar call centers in Canada, and across the world, is now considering closing several of its Canadian call centers. It could be the first in a line of call center closings in Canada, as US companies can't afford to spend the money with the plummet of the US dollar.
Convergys also employs home-based agents in the US and other locations, but it remains unknown if they plan on replacing some of the Canadian jobs with virtual call centers.

Convergys, homeshoring employer, is hiring in Omaha, Nebraska
Just a heads-up, Convergys is hiring and advertising on Monster.com
I didn't notice this before, but apparently they hire employees age 16 and up - so this could actually be a good opportunity for a younger person or college student to work from home as well.
Right now, they are specifically hiring in Nebraska. They have other positions as well, but the one in Nebraska seems to be an immediate need. Click here to apply.
