Interview
Teleperformance Australia brings in groups of Customer Care Advisors for interviewing. We were given a presentation by HR Manager and asked to introduce ourselves (i.e. Usual 'Tell us about yourself' scenario but in a group setting).
I'm undergoing training at the moment and it is quite challenging. Teleperformance Australia are extremely strict on Intellectual Property side of things. So if you want to take some training material home to have a look over in your spare time (say over weekend or weekday night for 1-1.5 hrs), it is a big 'No No'. Good thing is that trainers at Telelperformance Australia, encourage you to ask any questions the trainee may have. As the team leaders and trainers say 'There is no such thing as a silly/stupid question'. I felt mentally cooked at the end of a day of training. Also does not help that they keep assessment quizzes at the end of the day as oppose to start of the day.
If you've had Customer Care/Call Centre experience before then this is a good place to work because with the training they provide it better enables you to 'bridge the gap' and will likely enable you to settle into the customer care/call centre role better. If not, it is tough going,
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Three modes of interview testing.
1. Psychometric, Logic testing, Operating System skills testing, Web-browser skills and typing speed testing
2. Scenario-based testing, i.e. You're presented with a problem and you have to guide customer through to resolution of problem
3. One-on-One interview - Basic questions asked at this stage, availability to work based on roster, if you need any leave 3-6 months from start of employment, do you have a car available, any questions that the candidate has about the role
