Job Description

Overview

A major automotive brand is expanding its Dealer Chat Support team and seeking outgoing, engaging Web Chat Agents to assist customers during their vehicle shopping process. Instead of visiting a dealership or speaking with a salesperson, customers can chat online with you—receiving real-time support, product information, and guidance as they explore new and used vehicles.

This team plays a critical role in customer trust, satisfaction, and loyalty, serving as a key component of the company’s customer‑first experience strategy.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide real-time online chat support to car shoppers and customers.
• Assist customers with their vehicle purchase process and product questions.
• Offer proactive support with dealer locations, vehicle availability, and basic service appointment inquiries.
• Promote sales and capture leads by accurately presenting product features, benefits, promotions, and incentives.
• Deliver an outstanding customer experience and serve as a courteous brand ambassador.
• Make recommendations to improve customer satisfaction and overall efficiency.

This is not general customer service—this is pre‑sales chat support for shoppers exploring specific vehicles and dealerships.

Schedule & Work Environment

• Training: Onsite in Warren, MI (3 days/week: Tue–Wed–Thu).
• After Training: Work‑from‑home indefinitely.
• Operation Hours: 24/7 team; shifts fall between 7 AM–12 AM .
• Must be fully open to any shift within that window; shifts remain the same for 13‑week cycles.
• Shift Premium: +$2/hr for shifts starting after 11 AM EST (includes overnights).

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree (required).
• 6 months–1 year of customer service experience, ideally in high‑touch or premium environments (Nordstrom, Apple, Zappos, Chewy, etc.).
• Strong reading comprehension and excellent written communication skills.
• Must type 40+ WPM (typing test required).
• Outgoing, engaging personality that connects well through written communication.
• Ability to receive and apply feedback, ask questions, and engage with peers.
• Attention to detail and strong organizational skills.

Preferred Qualifications

• Degree in journalism, English, PR, or communications —strong ability to translate thoughts into well‑written responses.
• Experience in environments focused on customer care, relationship-building, or hospitality.
• Positive, self‑starting attitude with strong work ethic.

Disqualification Criteria

• Poor grammar, weak writing skills, or inability to meet writing expectations (assessed via mock chat + written questions).
• “Wham‑bam” style customer service backgrounds where speed is valued over quality.
• Timid or shy candidates—team requires outgoing personalities and comfort with frequent feedback.
• Inability to work onsite during training.
• Inability to commit to flexible scheduling.

Why This Role?

• Opportunity to gain experience with a major automotive brand’s customer experience organization.
• Part of a strategic initiative to build trust and long‑term customer relationships.
• Contributes to a high‑visibility program supporting over 2,000 dealerships nationwide.
• If the team is not fully staffed, the program risks outsourcing—your role directly impacts its long‑term stability.

The pay range for this position is $19.00 - $19.50/hr.
