Hi everyone,
I was hoping anyone could tell me how long in takes to be hired by West At Home. I submitted my application on Oct 26 and haven't heard anything back. Also after they say your hired do you get to pick whatever skill you want or do they pick it for you and if by chance I am hired do you think I can make enough money to buy some descent Christmas presents. I'm a college student with a big course load so I really need a job that I can work from home. Sorry to be asking so many questions and thanks for replying.

Unfortunately it took them 3 MONTHS to get back with me after my initial application. I was offered 2 skills to pick from.. I have heard some are only offered one skill. So far I've only been able to pick up about 15 hours a week, only been working 1 1/2 weeks though. It seems this next week I won't even get half that, I must have missed when they post hours 
Good luck!

I think to sum it up, the ones who get the quickest responses have put down they have a family or friend who is an existing WEST Employee. I have cousin who works at West. So when I put my application in, I got a response in 6 days. I just submitted my notarized forms late Friday, so we'll see how long it takes to get the next group of information.
So the key is to have a reference of an existing employee.

It took about 4 months for me to get a reply, and from what I have seen the skill you are offered varies with each applicant. Hopefully you won't have to wait as long as I did.

I was hired around 2 weeks after I submitted my application. I don't know anyone who works for West so I honestly don't think that has anything to do with it. I have no idea how they choose their applicants, it could just be luck of who get's your application. Skill is based on West business needs. My first offer was DR, I waited a day then VM was listed the next day GE was listed but when I clicked on the skill it said that recruitment was closed so in the end I signed up for VM. Good luck, it will happen soon!

A newbie here. Wow this was a really quick process for me. I applied Monday, and received my Congratulations, your hired letter Friday. I have been reading the West at Home forums, and still have so many questions.

I applied last February. Was hired November. Seems I have had the longest wait to be hired of anyone that has ever applied.

I'm not sure why some people get hired quicker than other? Maybe it depends on the state ur living in? They might need more reps in some states than others. I applied on 01/10/09 & rcvd my Congrats email letting me know that I should rcv my "Welcome" email in the next 72 hrs. Everything went extremely FAST for me.

Well I am in the same boat as everyone else. I applied April 2008 and on Jan 30th I finally got accepted! I sent my forms in and have not heard anything yet. I checked my status and it does say I am hired just that HR is inputting my forms. Am I still supposed to get a welcome email?

Anyone who have been with West at Home for years out of the time frame are you still on the same skill or a different one. I am new an i am working on the HSN project and the question is to all employees.

WOW!!! I submitted my application and heard back from them in less than 24 hours. I went through the entire process and started my training less than a week after filling out the application. I guess I was lucky. Unfortunately, I got stuck with the DR skill. I'm sure there are people who enjoyworking DR, but I'm not one of them. There is too much selling for me.
