The Client & What You’ll Be Doing
Our client is a support outsourcing partner for consumer-facing digital platforms, subscription services, and online product marketplaces. They need fast, thoughtful, and detail-oriented agents to respond to support inquiries across chat and email channels.

Your responses must be clear, helpful, and human.

- Use saved replies and macros to handle common issues quickly, while personalizing for tone and clarity.
- Tag and escalate technical issues, refund exceptions, or policy-related questions to higher support levels.
- Track ticket resolution times and ensure customer questions are answered on first contact when possible.

- Stay informed of platform changes, system outages, or promotional offers via daily internal updates.
- Submit an end-of-day report that summarizes activity, unresolved tickets, and improvement suggestions.
- Collaborate via text with support leads and teammates, submitting feedback on templates or help articles.
- Participate in ongoing performance reviews based on response clarity, timing, and customer satisfaction.
- Keep all work within client dashboards—no external tools or live calls involved.

Tips for Performing at a High Level
Start with the Customer's Emotion
Always acknowledge the customer’s situation before solving their issue. A quick “I understand how that could be frustrating” goes a long way.
Edit Every Message Before Sending
Even when using templates, reread for tone, accuracy, and spelling. Small details reflect your professionalism.
Don’t Wait to Escalate
If a case is outside your tools or permissions, escalate it immediately with complete notes. Delay hurts satisfaction scores.
Track Repeat Questions
If multiple customers ask the same thing, flag it. That feedback could improve templates and reduce future tickets.
