Chat Support Representative – Remote Work – $25–$35/Hour – Entry-Level, No Degree Required – Remote Jobs No Degree
Role Overview
Our recruiting agency is currently placing candidates into entry-level, remote chat support roles with a fast-growing global brand in the wellness and lifestyle sector. This is a remote-only position that pays between $25 and $35 per hour and requires no previous experience or educational background. Candidates without a college degree are encouraged to apply. You’ll be providing non-phone support exclusively via live chat and email—making this an ideal opportunity for those who prefer to work independently, without speaking on calls or engaging in voice-based customer service.
The Client & What You’ll Be Doing
The client is a subscription-based wellness company with customers in North America, Europe, and parts of Asia-Pacific. They offer a range of holistic health and lifestyle products delivered monthly to their subscribers. Their mission is rooted in simplicity and personalization, and they pride themselves on creating a customer experience that feels supportive and human. As a Chat Support Representative, your role will involve handling live chat conversations and email responses regarding subscription changes, shipping delays, account access, product questions, and order updates. You’ll be using their internal dashboard to manage tickets, respond to requests, and document case outcomes.
Primary Job Tasks
Actively manage incoming live chats from customers with questions about orders, products, account settings, or shipping. Maintain a fast, helpful, and accurate response rate in every conversation.
Respond to support emails from customers, typically covering longer-form inquiries such as cancelation requests, billing clarification, or feedback about the product experience.
Use the company’s CRM system to view customer profiles, order history, and subscription settings to tailor your responses and solve issues efficiently.
Follow internal support documentation to resolve common issues and escalate unusual situations to supervisors or Tier 2 teams.
Log every chat interaction with detailed notes, categorized by issue type, resolution outcome, and follow-up needs.
Collaborate with teammates asynchronously using internal communication tools (Slack, Trello) to ensure customers receive consistent, accurate information.
Participate in weekly training updates to stay current on product changes, promotional campaigns, and system upgrades.
Flag recurring issues to the product or operations team so the client can make backend improvements based on support data.
Stay on-brand with your tone of voice by following client-specific writing guidelines. Customers should always feel like they’re chatting with someone who truly represents the company.
Help test new automation tools such as chat macros or response templates, providing feedback on which ones enhance or hinder customer clarity.
Track your own metrics like first response time and satisfaction score to help improve your future performance.
Participate in seasonal bonus programs based on performance, attendance, and peer-reviewed quality.
A Typical Shift Breakdown
Early in Your Shift
You’ll log into the support dashboard, check for system messages, and read any updates from the shift lead. Begin by handling rollover conversations from the previous team and answer new chats in the queue. Common early shift topics include refund status checks and shipping inquiries from orders placed the night before.
Mid-Shift Workload
This is where the chat volume peaks. You’ll manage up to 4 concurrent chats, with new tickets coming in via email at the same time. You’ll need to use snippets, templates, and product lookup tools to stay fast and accurate. During this time, you might also be called upon to tag tickets with new feedback categories or join an optional huddle with the quality team.
Wrapping Up
As the shift winds down, you’ll begin closing open tickets, leaving detailed notes for the next rep, and ensuring all unresolved chats are documented correctly. You’ll complete a shift handoff summary, flag any customer concerns that require follow-up, and log out of systems after checking for any final assignments.

Tips for Performing at a High Level
Writing & Typing Fluency
Chat work is all about clarity and speed. Use short sentences, correct grammar, and a helpful tone. If a customer is upset, reply calmly and offer a clear solution within your authority.
Learning Product Details
During training, you’ll receive product breakdowns and FAQs. The best reps use these documents daily. Don’t worry about memorization—just know how to find the right information when needed.
Written Tone and Customer Care
Your writing should reflect empathy, professionalism, and a bit of brand personality. Avoid sounding robotic, and never copy-paste responses blindly. Customers appreciate personalization.
Managing Live Workload
It can get busy. Prioritize speed without losing quality. Use keyboard shortcuts and saved responses to help—but always review before sending. Stay focused on one issue at a time per customer.
Handling Remote Independence
You won’t be micromanaged. Set yourself up with a focused workspace and track your own performance. If you need help, someone is always just a Slack message away.
Growing With Feedback
Supervisors will review your conversations weekly and provide feedback. Use this to improve your phrasing, accuracy, and issue resolution speed. Top reps get promoted to mentoring or QA roles within 60–90 days.
