  • Meet productivity, quality, and handle-time targets in alignment with seasonal service level agreements (SLAs)

  • Remain active on phones and/or video tools for the full duration of each scheduled shift

  • Adapt quickly to client-specific tax software, workflows, and scripts during onboarding and throughout the season

Qualifications:
