Are you looking for a work-at-home job in California and feeling like opportunities are slim? You aren’t alone. Despite FlexJobs stating that California has more remote opportunities than most, many at-home job seekers don’t feel the same way.
The fact of the matter is the vast majority of job leads have a location requirement. For some, this may be because onsite training or occasional meetings are required. For most, however, it comes down to local laws. Many states have stricter employment regulations and even taxes, which can make things more complicated. So much so, many companies choose to avoid them altogether. There are quite a few companies, though, that do hire California residents. We are talking about those today.
Verified Work From Home Jobs in California
The below companies have recently had job openings open to California residents. Most of these will be employee positions versus freelance/independent contractors. Hiring requirements can change at any time.
Achieve Test Prep
This company helps students prepare for exams. They hire remote employees around the globe for a variety of positions. Some of the most recent openings included online instructors, customer service, and sales.
Amazon
Amazon work-from-home jobs are highly coveted. Although they hire in a variety of industries, their seasonal customer service roles are the most popular among my community members. These positions do not come up often. You will need to keep an eye on their website and apply quickly when they come up. (Check out this post for a few pointers to stay on top of your favorite companies’ job openings.)
Automattic
Automattic is the company behind WordPress, Woocommerce, Tumblr, and more. And, they are located in California, so it’s not surprising they are open to hiring employees residing in the state. Their positions are often full-time and come with a lot of flexibility and benefits.
BELAY
BELAY is a virtual assistant company. They are frequently seeking Executive Assistants, Bookkeepers, and Web Specialists. You will need several years of experience in one of those fields to be considered.

Boldly, formerly Worldwide 101, also hired remote assistants. In addition to Executive Assistants, they are also frequently hiring paralegals and online marketing specialists.
