Paperless Post is seeking a compassionate customer support associate that will help our users have the best experience possible on our platform on a daily basis. Because we never read answers out of a manual, you’ll spend your days providing the kind of personalized responses that make customers feel like they’re talking to a real live human being—because, well, they are!

After completing a two-week training session in our New York City office, remote support team members work 40 hours a week in 6-8 hour shifts, including some weekends and holidays, from home. We’re aiming for 24/7 support as much as possible, so your ability to work odd hours is a plus.

**To apply, send us your resume and a cover letter that answers the following questions:

Please provide your general availability for each day of the week. Is it steady or does it change frequently? How flexible is your schedule?

What do you think is the most important responsibility you have as a customer support rep?

Explain a scenario when you had to tell a customer “no” or had to correct their mistake.

Explain a scenario when you made a mistake. What did learn from the experience? How was it resolved? How did you feel about the feedback you received (from your customer, teammates, or manager)?

A little bit about us

The PP Support team takes empathy to the next level.
