NexRep Virtual Call Center [Update]

Updated on: by Amy Kennedy

A look at working from home for NexRepLast year, I wrote an article on NexRep which published on June 3, 2013.  The company has grown and gone through many updates since then.  I am happy to report that NexRep’s PR folks actually got in touch with me to inform me about this “new and improved” NexRep.

Hi i was wondering what the back ground check would be looking for. My husband and i have a ministry for addicts a couple years.. but a dr had prescribed to me vicodin..adderal.. xanax and ambien. I walked around losing time. I ended walking to go to a store 1 time and walked out in plane sight with a nose spray. Another place was a pack of nabs and a soda. This happened several times before they had me off of all that could cause that. It never happened one more time. You are welcome to look and that is what you will see. Before that ive had years experience in sales
