Not sure if it is true but I read somewhere that with DR you have to resign to get a new skill. Does anyone know if that is true?
Caterina - If you start working with DR let me know how it goes. How was the training part? Good luck with your decision.

Hello to All!
Just received my "you're hired" email. Problem is, I dont have DSL or cable yet. Will probably have next week since I'm moving. My question is How soon do I have to respond to this email before the offer is rescinded? Any input would help!
Thanks to All!!!

I hated selling and read from a script too when I was in the job market some years back. In these bad times, aleast in Florida people are turning to online income opportunities.

I just finished the training. I was only offered DR. It took me about 6 days to complete the training. I took my time and it took about 16 hours. It a good bit of information at one time. There are tests after each "course" and you can only take the test twice. I believe it you fail a course, you can't continue. But I'm really not sure. I found it very helpful to take notes/screen shots of pages for future references.
Good LUCK!!!!
Here's to Christmas MONEY here too!!

I didn't realize I had so many typos in my previous reply. Sorry!
Yes, it is nice to get paid for training. I've worked a few shifts so far and it's not too bad. I still have the Newbie Jitters, but I think it will get better with time and experience.
Let me know if you have further questions.

I work for West doing DR and they rank you according to how well you do in keeping your goals. You start off as a rank 2 until they see how you do. Rank 1 is the best this means you will have more calls directed to you. Rank 2 is the next best, meaning you will have more calls directed to you than a rank 3 but a little less than a rank 1. Honestly from my experience it all really depends on the call vol. I am now ranked 2 but got just as many calls when I was ranked 3

Hi Rosie1, I just finished VMA training this past week and just did my Webinar this evening. Now I just have to wait for my sign in info and I'm ready to take calls. I didn't do any screen shots and didn't feel that I needed any when I took the test. My notes pretty much covered what was asked. Just be sure to go back and double check your answers, a couple of the questions were not very clear imo. Good luck!

No. I was offered a job with DTV with another company, Convergys but I didn't like the hours they had for training and work so I turned it down.
