Itsdacraic · 27-07-2010, 13:21

I thought this was a call to arms.

Never heard of that company, sorry bud.

DarkJager · 27-07-2010, 13:31

don't know what they're like to work for but their hr are awful. I went for an interview with them, carried out by 2 people who didn't have a clue about conducting one. Heard nothing back, but the job was online for 3 months afterwards and changed title from customer service to tech support multiple times. Left me with the impression of a bunch of amateurs running a call centre.

wages are bad, hours are long and lots of calls - just like all call centres

paid weekly and canteen is only a microwave, fridge and hot water. pretty basic

Seen some of the ads, the money seems to be just about minimum wage. Not much money in tech support these days

Least you dont need a second language for that job though!

correct to the above..... but double the dole is all I keep telling myself

munstergirl · 27-07-2010, 14:34

Had telephone interview with them. Its basically a call centre. They told me they were doing support for vodafone.

Pay is really bad. €18k, shift work 9-9. 7 days a week, they did not mention shift allowance.

Its out the back of dell in raheen industrial estate.

I worked in call centre once and value my sanity.

But jobs are pretty thin on the ground in limerick now a days, and i have seen worse paid in shannon €17k data entry.

fire_man · 27-07-2010, 14:41

is it manageable for a few months?

if you're used to call centres then yes. If you're new oto it then I think not.

mates hated working there..found it very boring..got a few of my mates in there and they all moved onto better things...businesses are more likely to hire you when you're already working than sitting on your ass at home so it's worth it to bite the bullet for a few months and get it on your CV.

munstergirl · 27-07-2010, 14:56

Its € money at the end of the day!

And its not like limerick has a lot of jobs to offer to be fussy.
