Customer support against a US hire

Junior

$1,600 a month, 1 to 3 years

Works from written instructions and checks in often. Right when somebody on your team can review the output daily.

Mid

$2,080 a month, 3 to 6 years

Works out what to do without written instructions and reviews other people's work. The level most placements start at.

Senior

$2,560 a month, 6 years and up

Owns a process end to end, leads two or three others and talks to your clients. Right when your team has no time to manage the seat.

Questions about this role

Can they take phone calls, or is it tickets only?

Both. Spoken English is tested on a recorded call before anyone reaches the bench, and we tell you the level we scored. If your volume is mostly phone, say so when you share the role and we shortlist for it specifically, because the strongest ticket writer is not always the strongest on a call.

How long before they answer without checking with us?

Usually two to three weeks on the questions already covered in your help center, and longer on anything touching refunds or billing, because that is where you want them asking. Most clients give them a list of what they can decide alone on day one and extend it each week.

Do they work weekends?

Only if the placement is set up that way from the start, and the hours still add to a normal week rather than a sixth day. If you need genuine seven day cover, that is two placements, and we will say so rather than stretch one person across it.

Who employs the specialist?

Tribe does. They are contracted through us in their own country, and you sign one agreement with Tribe. You get a worker on your team without opening an entity or running foreign payroll.

What happens if the fit is wrong?

Tell us inside the first month and we shortlist again. The replacement costs nothing and we stop billing the placement that did not work from the day you tell us. We would rather swap once than lose the account.

Can I interview before I commit?

Yes. You see two or three profiles with their work samples, you interview the ones you want, and you decide. Nothing starts until you pick someone.
