      Apr 2013 - Nov 2015

      In my role as a Floor Supervisor, I had a critical responsibility: ensuring that phone agents seeking guidance on policy, procedures, or regulatory matters received accurate and efficient answers. My approach involved offering one-on-one support directly at their desk to troubleshoot effectively.I was part of a dynamic team consisting of approximately 30-40 colleagues, all of whom shared the same role. As Subject Matter Experts (SMEs), we were well-versed in all aspects of company policy and procedure. Additionally, we had the authority to make judgment calls for exceptions to policy and procedure and handle supervisory calls, demonstrating our proficiency in resolving complex issues.My team played a pivotal role in bridging the gap between agents and management, which enabled us to develop valuable skills in both areas of our company. Managers often turned to us as the first point of contact when they had questions regarding proper procedures or the interpretation of policies, especially during Quality Monitoring assessments.
