Experience, Skills, and Personality Traits
No experience is needed for collection jobs, but the U.S. Department of Labor reports that some employers prefer applicants who have at least six months to a year of experience in call centers, and some agencies prefer new hires to have several years of experience. Those with experience are more likely to land jobs, earn higher pay, and get promoted.
