AAA Is Hiring Work-From-Home Travel Agents in 21 States (Pay Is $17/Hr)

AAA has come a long way from fixing tires. Over the years, the organization has consistently added products like auto and home insurance and travel packages.

AAA Club Alliance is now hiring travel agents to work with its New Jersey call center. This work-from-home job allows candidates to reside “anywhere in our footprint,” which includes all or parts of New Jersey, Connecticut, Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, West Virginia, Virginia, Washington, D.C., Kansas, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Florida, Missouri, Washington, Arizona, Colorado, Oregon and California.

But note: Since those hired  must attend a five- to eight-week training program in Hamilton, New Jersey, location could be an issue.

The gig pays $17 an hour and features some stellar benefits, including nearly four weeks of paid vacation accrued over the first year, travel discounts and tuition reimbursement. And — wait for it — all calls are incoming, so you won’t have to cold call.

Even if this position isn’t a good fit for you, consider grabbing a AAA membership for some awesome discounts.

We know phone gigs aren’t for everyone. No worries. Check out our Jobs page on Facebook for other great opportunities.
