Double Check for Virtual Call Center Employees

If your call center is planning to hire agents to work from home, you have to sit up and do some homework. When you are screening the agents, you must look for discrepancies in their work experience and what kind of telemarketing services they have done. Work at home agents may have some negative intent about the data that you share with them. To keep your data safe and also to ensure that your clients are not being taken for a ride, you will have to do the checks. You have to be careful about running criminal checks on the shortlisted telemarketing agents. Cross check their references and insist on talking to their previous employers and team leaders/members.



Call centres these days run on reputation. If you have the right kind of agents on your team, you will be able to build up this reputation over the days. BPO units are better suited if they are vigilant about security. Data theft and security concerns about telemarketing scams are always looming on the horizon. If you are not careful, you may find work at home agents duping your customers by obtaining their financial details. It is also your duty to protect the customers from being conned under your brand name. Helios Outsourcing is very careful about such concerns.
