Opportunities for advancement are solely based on performance, so working hard can move you up the corporate ladder quickly as we grow into one of the Nation’s top technical staffing firms.

Perfect fit

The company seems to have 3 things that are crucial to success for future employees. First, the person must have excellent customer service experience. Second, the candidate must be well organized. Third, the candidate must be able to use and communicate on the phone efficiently. I would say the hardest thing from these requirements is the ability to deal with customers day in and day out. Personally, I’ve had a phone customer service job. It sucked. I know now that I can’t deal with people complaining on the 24/7. On the other hand, you seem to have the necessary experience from this position including already working for another delivery company. I think you will make a good addition to Penske.
