I have an interview with Insight Call Centre in Kippax St, just wondering if you would know what kind of questions they ask etc, and if the manager is nice..

Thanks..

As I said before I've done telemarketing and will never do it again :mad:
imo its much better to be doing market research or charity than actually 'selling' some junk over the phone.
The End. :)

lol i say if youre selling stuff or offering services like insurance then ppl have the right to tell you off but charities would usually end in 'id like to but...'

would u get fired if you constantly fall below the rate? or make no credit card sales?
most probably... but its easy to con people into buying the stuff believe it or not ;) so you shouldn't have any problems

its a charity, if you can make all youre rejections ' i know its a good cause but...' then theres really nothing else you could have done but if youre getting 'not interested' constantly you need to work it a little more.
