Yes, some work from home jobs provide equipment and need no experience. Remote customer service employers like Alorica and Sutherland ship company computers, and Apple gives At Home Advisors an iMac and a headset.
Below are the companies I could confirm on their own career pages, what you still need to supply, and how to spot equipment scams. If you have questions, ask in the comments below.
Key takeaways
- Most common: remote customer service and tech support jobs are the ones most likely to ship equipment.
- You still supply: internet, usually wired, and a quiet private room.
- Policies vary by role: even companies that ship computers have some listings where you use your own.
- Pay: U.S. customer service reps earned a median $21.53 an hour in May 2025, per the BLS.
- Red flag: a “company” that mails you a check to buy equipment is a known scam.
Which work from home jobs provide equipment?
I checked each company’s official careers page on 31 October 2026. Equipment rules change by role and country, so always confirm in the listing itself.
Scroll sideways to see the full table.
| Company | What they provide | What you supply |
|---|---|---|
| Apple (At Home Advisor, College Program) | An iMac and a headset, plus internet reimbursement up to an amount discussed in recruiting | A private quiet room, desk, ergonomic chair and hardwired internet |
| Sutherland | A laptop or desktop and a headset from Sutherland | At least 25 Mbps internet and a mobile phone |
| Alorica | Ships computers to eligible work-at-home staff | Internet; some roles use your own Windows PC |
| TTEC | “TTEC issued equipment” for remote teams | Internet; some listings ask for your own computer |
| Automattic | An equipment allowance for your workspace | Internet access; most roles need experience |
Apple At Home Advisor (College Program)
Apple’s FAQ says it provides an iMac and a headset for Advisor work. You need a private, quiet room, a desk, an ergonomic chair and hardwired internet (Apple).
It’s open to U.S. college students, at 20 hours a week. Prior Mac experience helps but isn’t required, and training lasts up to nine weeks.
Sutherland
Sutherland’s work-at-home page lists a laptop or desktop and a headset from Sutherland. You bring at least 25 Mbps internet and a mobile phone (Sutherland).
Alorica
Alorica’s setup guide covers unpacking and setting up the equipment it ships (Alorica). It withholds a deposit when it ships a computer and returns it once you send the equipment back.
Some Alorica roles use your own Windows PC instead, with wired internet (Alorica). Check which setup your job uses.
TTEC
TTEC’s FAQ says its remote teams receive TTEC issued equipment (TTEC). It also says it looks for people with customer service experience.
TTEC adds that some at-home jobs may require your own computer, and that it never asks you to buy anything from TTEC (TTEC).
Automattic
Automattic, the company behind WordPress.com, offers an equipment allowance to build your workspace (Automattic). Most of its roles need prior skills, so treat it as a next step.
Which remote jobs make you bring your own equipment?
Many do. Arise says it is not a job but a business opportunity, and you must meet its System and Equipment Policy, including a Windows 11 PC on a wired connection (Arise FAQ).
Read the “equipment” or “technical requirements” part of every listing. If it says “your own computer”, budget for that before you apply.
How much do these jobs pay?
Most equipment-provided jobs are customer service roles. U.S. customer service reps earned a median $21.53 an hour in May 2025. The lowest 10% earned under $15.27 (BLS).
The BLS lists no related work experience as typical, a high school diploma as the usual entry education, and 2 to 4 weeks of on-the-job training.
Are there overnight work from home jobs that provide equipment?
Yes. The BLS notes some call centers are open 24 hours, so shifts can start early in the morning or late at night. Filter the TTEC, Alorica and Sutherland job boards by shift.
Are there non-phone jobs that provide equipment?
Some. The BLS says reps may also help customers by email, text, live chat and social media. Search listings for “chat” or “email support” to find them.
How do you spot an equipment scam?
The Social Security Administration’s Choose Work program warns about a common scam: a “company” mails you a check to buy equipment, but for too much money (SSA Choose Work).
They ask you to send back the extra. The check bounces, and you lose the equipment money plus what you sent.
- Never pay to get hired. TTEC and Alorica both say they don’t ask candidates to pay.
- Know the deposit rule. Alorica holds a deposit on shipped computers, then returns it after you send them back.
- Apply on the official site. TTEC says real offers come after an interview and from an @ttec.com email address.
How do you get hired with no experience?
- Get your setup ready. A quiet room and wired internet are the two things almost every listing asks for.
- Test your speed. Run a speed test and compare it with the listing’s minimum.
- Show soft skills. Mention any job where you helped people, even retail or volunteering.
- Apply widely. Customer service hires often, because BLS projects about 289,500 openings each year.

FAQ
Do remote jobs provide equipment?
Some do, mostly customer service and tech support roles at large employers. Many others expect you to use your own computer, so check each listing.
Which companies send you a computer to work from home?
Sutherland, Alorica and TTEC say they ship equipment for remote roles. Apple provides an iMac and a headset in its At Home Advisor College Program.
Do I have to return the equipment?
Usually, yes, when the job ends. Alorica, for example, returns your deposit once it receives the equipment back.
Do I still need my own internet?
Yes. Every company above asks you to supply your own internet, and several require a wired connection.
Is a job that sends me a check for equipment legit?
Treat it as a scam. Real employers ship equipment or give an allowance; they don’t ask you to deposit a check and send money back.
