A bit about you:
  • Working hours for this role are 12:00pm-8:00pm (your first month or so would be a regular 9am-5pm schedule while you complete your initial paid customer support training)

  • You're organized. You're methodical in your approach, with a solution-oriented mindset and the ability to multitask.
