yay. employment.

basically, i think they can decide whether they want to hire me on after the four days of paid training.

what i'm going to be doing is sitting at work station (basically a small table, a phone and a computer) and answering incoming calls all day.

what adlab does is screen applicants for other companies.

say office depot is hiring. they contract us, and then people see an ad that says that office depot is hiring with our number (and a specific extension number) underneath it.

the phone rings, the system notifies me what company/position this person is calling about (as designated by the extension they dialed) and i ask them a series of questions. some of the questions are known as "disqualifiers", so if they answer them in a way other than what is expected, they're basically out of the race for the position.

if they answer everything right, however, i schedule them an appointment with the company.

i dunno how that works right now. i assume i consult the network to see when the soonest possible opening for them is, and then i enter their appointment into the database, and so on...

i dunno.

i'll keep you posted.
