“I’ve learned how to pay attention to detail, how to have conversations. I’ve learned how to be a professional and what it means to have a good work ethic. I’ve learned how to effectively communicate with others…It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it. I’ve learned how to be a businesswoman and not just an associate. And I’ve taken everything I’ve learned working here and used it in my personal life.“ ~ Supervisor in Mt. Hope

“We aren’t pushy like the stereotypes people have of telemarketers.  We’re not over-the-top.  We don’t get yelled at a much as you would think.  And it only takes one good call to make your whole day!” ~ Associate in Mt. Hope
