No. It isn't a job, it's more of an extension of the hobby -- something to do in your spare time, whenever it's convenient for you. There are no set schedules and you can chat whenever you want. * What's in it for me? Just for showing up and getting high customer satisfaction scores, you'll earn employee discounts, demo equipment, swag and participation in drawings for trips, cash, and prizes. This opportunity is mostly about helping, not selling, but if you help a customer complete a purchase, you'll earn points that can be redeemed for ACTUAL cash or merchandise. Plus, earning some side money while chatting about your favorite hobby isn’t that bad of a deal! * What are you looking for in the ideal candidate?

Any time of day actually! We have customers on our website 24x7 and many of them are new to ham radio and need help choosing the right equipment. If you're available at 1am, you can bet there's somebody looking at the new Yaesu FT-991A and wondering if they actually need an external auto-tuner for their G5RV. If 1am is a convenient time for you to chat online and you know the answer to that question, you're probably a good fit! * It seems kind of odd to have non-employees helping customers – doesn’t GigaParts risk losing customers due to poor service?
