How We Schedule

There are two things that impact how we schedule. One is the fact that we operate 24/7/365, we literally never close. The other is that that we promise our clients a high level of service. This means we need to answer all calls in a timely fashion. No one likes waiting on hold, right?

Our historical call data and scheduling software tells us how many people we need each hour deliver award winning service. 

We're looking to hire employees who have a wide range of availability (open availability) and are available to work Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays.

If your availability is reduced, it may mean that you won't be scheduled 40 hours in any given week. We schedule employees anytime within their range of availability. We do not have set schedules and your schedule will be different each day and each week.

For example, if your availability is 10am-1am you could be scheduled one day 10a-6p, the next day 2p-10p, and the next day 4p-12a. The schedule is released a week in advance and wont change once it has been posted. At times we do have mandatory overtime which means you may be scheduled a 6th shift/day during the week.

Yes! We have evening shifts available to fit different schedules?
