Capital One Hires Remote Employees
You’re probably familiar with Capital One. They’re a large financial services company with headquarters in McLean, Virginia. This company offers banking, automobile loans, and credit card services.
Capital One also hires contact center associates for two different roles to work from home, servicing its customers virtually.
The two remote positions they hire for are Customer Service Representative and Fraud Contact Center Associate.
The only disadvantage is you’ll need to live within a 100-mile radius of the hiring location. The location will be stated in each job posting.

Duties
The job duties of a Fraud Contact Center Associate are similar to those of the Customer Service Representative because the same duties are listed.
