Pizza Hut Work from Home Jobs

Pizza Hut work from home positions can put you in charge of your own schedule and ditch the commute!”

Everybody Orders Pizza – Get Paid Taking Their Orders!

Here’s a job that has some appeal for many. Taking pizza orders. You get to work at home, it’s super flexible and the stress level is lower than most work at home customer support jobs. So that’s a lot of reasons to check it out. (Check out my posts on DoorDash, GrubHub and OrderUp for similar menu order entry jobs that let you work at home. You can also be your own boss and set your own schedule delivering food for Doordash as a Dasher!)

Though I haven’t actually done this job myself — I have gone through the sign-up process and it was fairly easy. I now have the option to begin training. So let me break it down for you.

These jobs are offered through ContractWorld (and it’s not just Pizza Hut – they have other major companies too!) — once you’ve signed up with ContractWorld, you have the option to train for different type jobs depending on your qualifications etc. I specifically signed up for the Pizza Hut job, but I see on my dashboard that I could opt to train for Club Auto as well to work in roadside assistance.

But back to taking orders for Pizza Hut specifically…

What are the Pizza Hut Orders From Home Job Specifics?

Basically, you’ll be taking orders just for Pizza Hut. These will consist of dine in, carry out and delivery orders. The average call is about 2.5 minutes. So you can see — these are quick and easy calls. And of course, most of us have ordered pizza before — so we pretty much know how this will go. Yes… I assume there are complaint calls — but I would guess that these are few and far between. Honestly, we order pizza 1-2 times a month, and I can’t remember EVER calling to complain about my pizza.

You’ll have a dashboard to log into in order to connect to the ordering taking screen. And of course – the ins and outs of this will be gone over in your training.

Hours and Pay for Work From Home Order Takers

The average rate of pay falls between $7.50 and $10.50 an hour (Rate per Order 55 cents.). My guess is that this all depends on how busy it is — and that’s why there is such a difference in the pay scale.

This is just the pay scale for the Pizza Hut order position. Like I said… you can log in and have other opportunities. Like the Club Auto I mentioned above pays $14.50 an hour. But you’re dealing will a lot more stress too. (Afraid that because you don’t have experience, you can work at home? Check out these 20 Entry Level Work at Home Jobs to Make Money.)

As far as scheduling, they are going to want you to work on their busiest days/nights if you can. That would be Thursday through Sunday. But given that these are busy times, the chance for better pay comes with it. Ultimately though, you are in charge of your own schedule. This makes it super flexible. They do ask that you at least work in 30 minute blocks though.

Training, Fees and What to Expect

Now this part, I don’t like — but I’ve seen it through other work at home companies too and it’s legit, but annoying. You have to pay for your training. I understand the company perspective behind this, I really do. Companies hire people, they put in the effort to train them, including paying someone to train them — and then 8 weeks down the road they quit. Great! You’ve invested several hundreds of dollars into the time, staff and energy to train them and they leave. Now you not only have a wasted investment — but you have to do it all over again. This happens A LOT in virtual customer service. So I get it. They want to put the cost of your onboarding in YOUR hands. Fair enough.

The fees can include not just training, but also background check if the client requires it. There may also be fees to use their proprietary software.

BUT – there is a bright side to this, I promise. You only have to train for what YOU’RE interested in. Like right now, I am very interested in the Pizza Hut job, but NOT the Club Auto job. And if I like order taking, they offer other food service companies too like KFC.

Training will vary from company to company — but it’s all online and can be just a few days to a week or two. You’re paid bi-monthly via direct deposit. Keep in mind as well, that this is an independent contractor position. You are not an employee of Pizza Hut or ContractWorld.

Still Interested? Here’s the Requirements

Of course, we all know that when working from home, a computer is pretty always needed. So that’s a given. In order to work at home taking pizza orders from home, you’ll be on the phone, so you need to be able to have a quiet place to work that is free of distractions.

You’ll also need:

1. High speed internet
2. A dedicated phone line
3. Basic computer skills

Final Thoughts

Because I’ve been researching work at home for so long (17 years) — I understand the fees. I really do. It’s not scammy. I’ve seen it with other companies too. Does it make it less annoying? No. Who wants to pay a fee to work? And paying fees is associated with a lot of scams. But I assure you, this is not. However, there are a lot of opinions out there from folks that have done the training and done the job. So I’m going to link one discussion from WAHM that is older, 2013 – but might still shed some light and insight for you. So I’d keep that in mind when reading it. Here’s the link to actually get started — they hire from the United States and Canada.
