Your advertising indicates there is flexibility in scheduling. How does that work?
ANSWER: Promark is flexible with schedules at hire. Once a default schedule is set, an Interviewer is expected to work that schedule each and every week following the setting of the schedule unless a weekly schedule change is submitted by Wednesday night of the prior week by the end of shift. Schedule changes should be the exception and not the rule. Once a schedule is confirmed for the week, an Interviewer is expected to fulfill the outlined schedule.
