The Client & What You’ll Be Doing
Our client is a leading third-party customer experience company supporting global brands across industries like ecommerce, online education, and wellness products. These brands rely on fast, consistent customer service delivered entirely through chat and messaging. Your job will be to assist customers with common issues including password resets, tracking orders, canceling subscriptions, or applying discount codes. You’ll be given a library of templates, guides, and product documentation—and trained on how to use them efficiently in a variety of chat-based scenarios.
Primary Job Tasks
- Respond to customer messages via live web chat, providing answers related to product use, billing, order status, and account questions.
- Handle support tickets sent by email, delivering professional, brand-aligned written responses.
- Use customer support tools (such as Zendesk or Intercom) to manage tickets, log conversation details, and follow escalation protocols.
- Match each response to the client’s brand tone and customize replies based on customer context.
- Track and prioritize multiple live conversations at once while adhering to response time targets.
- Escalate technical issues or account-level concerns by tagging senior support agents and documenting what actions were taken.
- Review internal announcements and product updates before each shift to ensure your responses reflect current policies.
- Participate in asynchronous writing audits that assess clarity, tone, grammar, and resolution success.
- Suggest edits to help documentation or saved replies when you notice frequent confusion from customers.
- Complete daily end-of-shift summaries to communicate unresolved tickets or flagged concerns to the next support agent.
- Follow internal standards for formatting, spacing, tagging, and language usage on all messages.
- Uphold professional communication across all channels—even when customers are confused, frustrated, or angry.

Wrapping Up
You’ll resolve final tickets, flag any pending cases that require follow-up, and complete your handoff notes in the shared dashboard. Be sure to tag all open conversations correctly and note any unusual issues for the lead.

Tips for Performing at a High Level
Writing & Typing Fluency
You’ll be writing constantly, so clarity, grammar, and formatting matter. Use bullet points when helpful, avoid slang, and match your tone to the client brand—friendly, concise, and helpful.
Learning Product Details
You’ll have searchable access to help docs and FAQs. Use these efficiently rather than guessing answers. Bookmark common solutions to speed up your replies.
Written Tone and Customer Care
Even when using templates, make the customer feel heard. Avoid overly robotic phrasing. Add their name, thank them for their patience, and reassure them with every reply.
Managing Live Workload
Don’t panic when juggling multiple chats. Prioritize based on urgency and keep your windows organized. Use quick replies but verify every detail before sending.
Handling Remote Independence
You’ll work independently with written-only support from team leads. Keep distractions low, communicate through the tools provided, and stay consistent with attendance and quality.
Growing With Feedback
Each week, you’ll receive a breakdown of your tickets with scores and suggestions. These reviews are essential—they show you how to earn bonuses, qualify for promotions, and improve your skills.
