if i remember correctly, their office is right by the casino on canada way.
it looks like you're doing business to business sales marketing trying to get clients to join shaw. they'll do an interview with you and if they want you.. they'll ask you to spend a day with them to see how things work/go
i never went to the follow up. they wanted me to spend 10 hours with them non pay?
its sort of like a 2nd interview.. and afterwards i pretty much figured it was going to be like door to door marketing.. or at least thats what i thought.. only because they told me what to wear
dress shoes/dress shirt and bring a jacket

benefit package is good, the cable package they offer ain't bad, but they hired way too many ppl right now so if you are part time, dont' expect full work week

Hey guys,
I wanna apply at shaw and i see that they have 2 types of positions opening (CSR or TSR)
To the guys and girls that work there now, what are the aspects that you like and dislike about the position. Or do you guys think i should just apply for both and see what happens? Any kind of feedback would be great.
Thanks in advance!

i like the company itself.. but i hate the position i'm in (tsr). you'd be surprised on how many stupid people call in, lol
if you're just looking for a job.. just apply for both
a tsr can do pretty much everything a csr can do. their primary role is to fix any technical issues. as for a csr.. their role is more sales and billing related issues
the hardest part of getting the job is just the interview process. once you get hired, the job is pretty easy

Don't think so as the tsr floor is pretty flooded with new hires. I hope they're not hiring anymore b/c all P/t hours are getting cut back. if we hire more, then i'll lose even more hours.

PT hours are only guaranteed at 20/week
PTimers were getting 40 hrs w/OT available became .... 35 w/no OT available
hell if u get stuck on a call or doing something they wont even approve OT. ALOT of changes in the company lately and more to happen.
not looking good
