Call Center Agent On Shift: Handling Irate Customer Calls
We’ve talked about getting a call center career, now it’s time to talk about keeping and succeeding in that job. As a call center agent, you are to expect a volume of calls to come in (or make if you are servicing an outbound account) in just one shift. The reality is that this can be very tiresome and stressful, especially if a call comes from an upset and frustrated customer. Handling difficult customers is a reality of the job. Its our job to handle it with grace and finesse. A call center agent that can take their personal feelings out of the situation and react empathetically, will both perform more effectively and will end the day with less stress.
Curiosity Killed The Cat: Safe Internet Surfing
I’m guilty of being an internet junkie. I belong to a generation driven by information readily available on the world wide web and anything is easily accessible as long there’s a stable internet connection. I have read more articles, researches, and headlines online more than I have ever done on print media and if you are reading this blog, you have to agree with me that the internet is a big part of mankind today. We use it to get the latest news, exchange ideas, reconnect with people, find a job and the list goes on. But do you know how to be safe on the internet and use it with protection for your own identity and information?

TeleTech Career Tip: How to Be On Time at Work!
The phrase “attendance is a must” has become a very popular expression. All meetings are created for a purpose. It may be to inform or to solve a particular problem. Regardless of the reason for the gathering, you have been invited to such meetings or events because you are seen as an integral part of that solution. Attendance shows commitment. In school for instance, some students are very dedicated in attending all their classes. Perfect attendance usually leads to higher grades at the end of the academic year. The same goes for the workplace. For some employees, they seldom miss any workday unless they are sick or have other important priorities. Unlike our school years though, we do not receive a grade to define our success. Instead, at work, success is defined by our ability to meet our professional goals. Meetings and collaborating with our coworkers is a means to that end.
