It is very easy to get hired at a FarEasTone company-operated store, but once you attend training, you will find that each class has over thirty people, and the attrition rate is extremely high. Usually, only five people survive to be assigned to stores. Taipei City is especially competitive. If you start work at 11 a.m. and have not met the day’s performance target, your supervisor may expect you to take the day off automatically—an “all day” leave. FarEasTone’s performance figures also accumulate gradually at rates such as 0.5%; you need to reach at least 80% per month to start with. Many stores in Taipei City do not finish work until the early morning. Renewals generate little performance credit; new applications are best, and low-priced phones bundled with high-cost plans generate the most performance. If you cannot retain a customer who wants to terminate their contract, that also affects your performance. FarEasTone also has an automated voice service that calls customers to ask about the service attitude. If a customer inexplicably selects the worst rating, store employees still have to return for retraining at 8 a.m. The telecommunications industry may generally be similar, but I would not rate this job positively, because if you are too conscientious and assume it is simply a store counter-service position, you will not be able to survive. This is 100% a sales job—and one with very little commission.
