Seasonal Customer Service Associate

Hi there! At HKR, we took out our map and compass and we’re currently on the lookout for new talented people in the Philippines to join our team in the shoes of a Customer Service Associate, assisting one of our US-based partners.

Btw, HKR was remote before it was even cool!

To apply, please fill out our external form.

(You will be redirected to it automatically, once you click "Apply").

What youll be doing?

• You will assist our US partner by communicating with their customers in English; primarily, all interactions are written and happen via e-mail or live chat - no voice/phones (phewww!)
• You will provide an order status update (tracking links, emailing printers, etc.);
• You will help customers set up exchanges for sizing issues and send out replacements in case of any damaged items;
• You will offer support in editing their orders (shipping address/info, item details);
• You will make inquiries and identify specific apparel designs customers are looking for on our site.
  
  

About You

• You come with previous experience in a similar position, having a background in customer support or customer operations;
• You worked as an individual contractor in one of your past companies;
• You have excellent communication skills, especially in English - we are looking for at least a C1 proficiency, both written and spoken;
• You have the ability to maintain composure and customer focus while troubleshooting and solving issues;
• You are fun, optimistic, have a good laugh, and at the same time give it your best professional self, being a dedicated team player, raising your hand and caring for your colleagues;
• You are tech-savvy - you know your way around apps and stuff; also, from a technical point of view, you need a strong internet connection and a PC/laptop with a webcam (BYOD - Bring Your Own Device).
  
  

About The Job

• You will be able to work from your awesome pajamas from the comfort of your home;
• We’re looking to hire in two batches with a determined collab contract of 2-3 months, depending on the batch, starting Oct 27th, and Nov 3rd, respectively. The contract will end Dec 31st, 2025; however, depending on the collab results, it could be extended throughout January (and even more!).
• While we typically work 3 PM - 12 AM, we want to offer our partners in the US the ability to work on a second shift (9 PM - 6 AM) and during weekends. Don’t worry; you’ll be able to switch around, and we’ll adjust to what you need but putting this out there so that you know what’s expected of us (this means you too);
• The training session typically takes about 2 weeks, during which we’ll use Google Meet, screen sharing and provide all the needed documentation for you to do an excellent job.
  
  

Perks

• Monthly income of up to $550 gross, working as an independent contractor
• Remote, full-time job
• Rotating shifts: 3 PM - 12 AM / 9 PM - 6 AM schedule (with 1 hour of lunch break)
• Start-up culture, young team, no egos, no BS
