    Well Had a phone call about an hour ago to ask me if I am still interested in working for Teletech :D:D.

    I had replied to a survey and they have invited me for a phone interview tomorrow :D:D. Not sure if the hours are suitable but will certainly give it my best attempt :D

    Good luck! I was told last week to wait till around Thursday for them to get back to me so all hopes for then, I'm also hoping for certain hours as well. 7pm start preferably but if I get the day job I'm hoping for then it'll be a short commute so that'll help.

    I am trying to not get my hopes up as I can not start until 7pm during the week so will just have to see how it goes.

    Most jobs involve some degree of compromise with family life.
    I work to improve the overall quality of my family's life-the loss of time balances out against nicer holidays etc.
    For me it's an acceptable trade-off.
    Teletech have made a nice contribution to our trip to America next month :)

    what happens if someone calls your home while you are working and have the headset plugged in

    will the teletech take priority and other calls wont come through

    how does that side of things work?

    thanks

    If you are working, only Teletech calls come through to you - you log into a softphone and cannot then take any other calls, say from friends or family. Not sure how it works technically as I am inbound sales lol - but I keep my mobile on silent just in case there is an emergency within my family. But I do let my family and friends know that I cannot take calls from 4.30 to 11pm on the nights I work. Hope this helps

    I think that you have to block calls from other numbers. I believe.
