Outbound & Inbound Call Center

Call Center Representatives work in a call center setting surrounded by other call center employees answering customers’ questions and referring them to the necessary resources to solve their problems. They usually follow a script with prepared responses based on customer’s questions and replies. After working closely with the customers to resolve their issues, some Call Center Representatives may try to sell additional products that may benefit the customers and may receive additional compensation for this sale. 

Most Call Center Representatives are responsible for keeping records of information received in conversations and log it into the call center database.
