hire customer service agents in africa

You hire customer service agents when calls, chats and emails pile up faster than your team can answer them, or when you open a new market. A good agent solves problems on the first contact, calms unhappy customers and helps you keep them.

A few questions, one at a time, then pick a time for a 30-minute strategy call with our team.

What to check when screening

  • Run a short call or chat role play to hear how they speak and listen.
  • Test their written English or French, since many requests come by email or chat.
  • Check their experience with a CRM or ticketing tool such as Zendesk.
  • Confirm their availability for your shifts, including weekends if needed.

Questions to ask in interview

  • A customer is shouting about a late delivery. What do you say first?
  • You do not know the answer to a customer's question. What do you do?
  • How do you stay patient by the end of a long day of calls?

Skills to look for

  • Phone and chat support
  • CRM tools like Zendesk
  • Complaint handling
  • Clear written communication
  • Fast, accurate typing
  • English and French
