Breakthrough CSAT with 4.2/5 Scores for Agent Friendliness

HGS employs tailored recruitment and then stringent training to drive this stellar CSAT:

  • The HGS leadership team employs personality profiling to hire the right agents for this program. “We built the team leadership from the ground up with the more empathetic personality types—the “feelers,” while making sure we have “doers” on staff, as well,” says Scott Yates, HGS General Manager. “ This provides an edge and aligns with the client culture. The agents with heightened sensitivity bring a personality type strength that shows downstream, in making our client customers feel supported and heard. It also fits with our client personality, which is thoughtful and progressive.”
  • With our “Train the Trainer” program, HGS works to ensure empathetic customer care that caters to the need of these customers. This client’s customer support typically requires heavy investment in training and knowledge management initiatives. HGS ensures team members have rigorous training and nesting with mentors to ensure they stay up-to-date on practices and processes to deliver high quality interactions. Technical training covers digital channels such as chat as well as the more traditional voice support.

Employee Engagement with Monthly Attrition of 9%

HGS leadership keeps employees engaged as “brand ambassadors,” with initiatives like trips to the client’s Chicago location for strong performers, to experience the brand firsthand. Additionally, there is focus on top performers, with recognition for MVP performance development of agents on critical KPIs. Team members are ensured a variety of tasks, with movement across both floor location and job responsibilities. “The number one compliment from our agents has been the team lead support,” Yates says. “We really are like a family, with a welcoming culture and agent-toagent support and relationships.”
