We’ve all been there… you want to order a new service, have a question, or are experiencing an outage with your phone provider, an online retailer, your entertainment system.

Did you know that you might just be speaking to one of the 5,000+ SYKES Home Customer Care Professionals and that person might just live around the corner? That’s right...

What to expect in the application / hiring process

  • Status of Application – You may not hear back from us right away. We encourage you to be a bit patient as we seek out just the right opportunity for you. Please watch your email as this is our most common and expedient way to reach you.
  • Interview – When we find a position we believe you might be interested in, we will invite you to join us on a virtual interview. Like everything else in our process, it is 100% online and over the phone. The interview consists of both individual and group discussions. Interviews will be conducted in English.
  • Offer – If you are offered a position and choose to accept, you will be asked to complete the required paperwork and pre-employment checks just as you would with any other employer. Because you are working remote, it may involve a bit of extra running around.

  • Competitive compensation
  • Regular paycheck
  • Set schedule
  • Rewards and recognition
  • Comprehensive training
  • Ongoing coaching assistance and support while taking calls
