Call Centre Jobs in Paris

Call centres have witnessed a boom in the past decade because of an increasing emphasis on consumer sales and support that is provided by companies. This has resulted in creating economic opportunities for millions of people throughout the world. Starting from students to professionals, call centres have openings for all the strata of society. A glaring reason for their success in hiring is that CSRs (customer sales representatives), the backbone of any call centre, do not generally require a high level of education. All the job demands is, good communication skills, courteousness and perseverance. Some people make a career out of it while others take it as a part time job to support their income. If you’re in Paris and don’t know how to look for call centre jobs, consider this article a step by step guide.

You can also give an overview of any extra co-circular activities you’ve participated in, besides mentioning the trainings and/or seminars attended (if any).

    It is said that networking is of utmost importance in today’s competitive professional world. Look around and you may find someone who has a reference in the call centre industry, or you may know someone who works or has worked in some call centre. Ask them for information about the call centre as well as the industry itself. Apply in their company, because when you know someone who is already working in a company, you have a higher chance of being called for an interview and/or selected for the job.
