This fully online position requires no prior job experience or college degree and is perfect for individuals looking to start a work-from-home career in customer service.

The Client & What You’ll Be Doing
Our client is a digital support agency working with top-tier brands in the ecommerce, digital content, and wellness spaces. These brands depend on responsive, well-written customer support delivered entirely through live chat and email. As a Chat Engagement Agent, you'll respond to incoming questions about subscriptions, shipping, product functionality, and billing—resolving issues with empathy and precision. You’ll manage conversations using a browser-based dashboard, applying templates, live tools, and knowledge base references to deliver accurate, professional service.
Primary Job Tasks
Respond to live chat messages in real time, assisting customers with login issues, billing questions, or product usage guidance.
Reply to customer emails submitted through the brand’s support portal, using structured formats and tone-appropriate language.
Track conversation history in the internal CRM and enter notes on each case for follow-up or documentation.
Reference internal help documentation to identify accurate and compliant answers to customer questions.
Personalize saved replies to ensure each customer receives a human-sounding response, not a script.
Tag and categorize tickets according to the type of request, urgency level, and action taken.
Escalate technical errors, fraud concerns, or brand-sensitive issues to supervisors via chat thread handoff.
Maintain internal quality standards including reply times (under 60 seconds for chat, under 30 minutes for email).
Attend optional text-based coaching sessions and participate in writing assessments designed to help you grow.
Identify areas of improvement in templates, help center articles, or system navigation based on repeated issues.
Submit end-of-shift logs summarizing open cases and customer patterns for team handoff.
Maintain high accuracy across all tickets—paying attention to tone, grammar, and ticket tagging details.
A Typical Shift Breakdown
Early in Your Shift
You’ll start by logging into your ticket dashboard, scanning internal updates, and picking up any rollover tickets from previous shifts. This is also the best time to warm up by answering simple email questions.
Mid-Shift Workload
This is peak chat time. You’ll manage several concurrent live conversations while continuing to respond to email tickets. You'll use shortcuts and macros, but must personalize each response to maintain the client’s voice.
Wrapping Up
You’ll finish all live chats, tag any unresolved issues, and flag anything requiring team lead review. Finally, you'll submit a brief end-of-shift report and make sure your ticket queue is clear for the next agent.
Who We’re Looking For
No experience required—ideal for new job seekers or remote work beginners
No degree required—skills over credentials
Typing speed of 40 WPM or more with strong accuracy
Excellent grammar and written tone in English
Calm, customer-first attitude when handling multiple inquiries
Able to navigate basic web tools and multitask between chats and documentation
Consistently available for scheduled shifts (15–40 hours per week)
Comfortable receiving written feedback and improving from it
Independent worker who thrives in a quiet, structured remote environment
Reliable internet and access to a personal computer (laptop or desktop only)
Tips for Performing at a High Level
Writing & Typing Fluency
Fast, clean writing is the key to great customer support. Proofread everything. Use polite transitions, and never send robotic messages.
Learning Product Details
Your best tool is the brand’s documentation. You’ll have searchable help articles at your fingertips—become fluent in searching and applying solutions.
Written Tone and Customer Care
Be friendly, direct, and respectful. You’re not a robot—sound helpful without overdoing it. If someone’s upset, acknowledge it and focus on solving the issue.
Managing Live Workload
It can get hectic. Use tab organization and ticket tagging tools. Always finish replies before jumping to the next conversation.
Handling Remote Independence
No micromanagement here. You'll be expected to manage your own day, meet quality expectations, and keep an eye on system updates.
Growing With Feedback
Each week, your responses will be reviewed. You’ll be scored on accuracy, tone, and speed. Embrace this feedback—it helps you earn more and grow fast.
Getting Started with the Client
