You will support our customers with their orders, product queries, payment issues, account updates, website education or problems they may be having. If you are a people person and can deliver great customer service, this role is for you.
No previous contact centre experience necessary, as we will provide an initial 4-week training. As this training is imperative for setting you up for assisting our customers, no holidays can be taken during this time.

What will your working week look like?
In order to ensure that we match customer demand, we’ll schedule your work based on a variety of shift patterns between Monday and Sunday from 7am to 9pm, for a contract period of 12 months. Expect to be working 5 days a week on average during this time. Amazon customer service is open 365 days a year, which means you may be scheduled on red days. You will then of course receive a premium on your salary.
What will you get in return?
As one of the world’s largest companies, Amazon is committed to supporting you with the development of your career. Opportunities are frequent within Amazon, with most of our leadership teams having started in customer service associate roles.

What does the recruitment process look like?
The first step is to do an online assessment. If you're moving on, the next step is to have an interview with a Team Leader from the Customer Service Team. During this conversation, you will be tested on your English and Swedish language skills, in both speaking and writing. It is also the perfect opportunity to ask any potential questions you have about the team and the role. If all goes well, we look forward to taking you to the next step in the process.
