Well folks...I got the job! Just got off the phone with the staffing recruiter. I’ll be going to the Premier Relationship Center in Tempe, starting on either Monday, 05 September or Tuesday, 06 September; the recruiter has to call me back on that one since, after all, we’re talking Labor Day Holiday here.
Training will go from 0830 to 1700 Monday through Friday for three weeks. After that, my shift will be 1030 to 1900 Monday through Friday. More NORMAL hours, with a 6.5% increase in my base salary. Although I’ll be losing my 10% evening shift differential, this is definitely more than what I was planning on, so I’ll be losing only 3.5%.
What I’ll be doing is working with customers who call in with requests for help with their accounts. No more hunting down the a**holes who hide and give me the third degree when I find ‘em! There are also people I know over at the Tempe campus who will be glad to see me there! I can’t wait!
