At kinex you are given full training so whether you have no sales experience or you do you still receive full training, everyone here is full of life and friendly, there’s never a dull moment!

20 December 2019Hi,Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are pleased you are enjoying your time at Verastar. Ensuring our staff have a positive and friendly working environment is key, as well as ensuring they are provided with enough support and guidance to reach their full potential.
Work is easy but is ran by stupid people. Also don't pay there staff can and will get fired with no warning and I say again they do not pay you.......
Best place I have worked the hours are the best you could ask for
No awkward shifts you know your shifts 5 days a week all weekends off to yourself and finish time is my favourite part
Management at Nottingham is the best you are treated like one of the team from the start and helped through out the stages of employment
I would 100% recommend to work here the team is one massive family such a lovely environment to work in
Pros
Good management and sociable hours great commission
Most staff dont last longer than a week or so. As mentioned previously you need at least 2 sales a day, and if you dont meet your targets on a week youre out the door. You have no job security in your contract. Most reviews will be paid for so they can keep people coming in the door, because they send so many people going the other way.

I’ve been at kinex for a few weeks and I really enjoy the job, it’s very target driven however there are a lot of fun games and the atmosphere is great.
Working at kinex is a very challenging but rewarding environment,everyone is very supportive and when you need help its not far away, i feel like since i started kinex they have boosted my confidence on the phone and in person, everyone is very welcoming, and the bonus scheme and incentives are very good
Kinex is a great and fun place to work with a great management team. The basic wage is brilliant and the commission is uncapped so the sky is the limit. The work environment is very chilled and a great place to be.

11 June 2019Hi,Thank you for taking the time to leave such a positive review!It is great to hear you are enjoying your time with Kinex, and have such a positive working relationship with your management teamKeep up the great work :)
Was at Kinex for a week before they let me go, the reason why was because I didn't hit my deal target which isn't even anything to do with me because I just set the appointments. Was 1 minute late into work and got told off but someone the next day turned up 20 minutes late and was fine!
Very unprofessional management who clearly have favourites and let them get away with anything. Pay is awful for the amount of hours you work, the "important meeting" in the morning is to just ask everyone what they did on the weekend (pointless).
The only good thing about this company was the people you work with and the occasional interesting person on the other end of the phone.
The training is just a rinse and repeat and doesn't work as the script is just unrealistic.
Overall wish I never bothered applying as the job is a complete lie and the company is a shambles.

9 April 2019Hi,Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. We are disappointed to hear of your negative experience as a Customer Service Advisor, as we endeavour to ensure all of our representatives have a positive experience whilst working with us here at Kinex. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your hard work and wish you every success in the future.
Don't bother you'll get fired within 2 weeks lmao. Only about sales they don't care about anything else. On the phone on your first day with the worst 2 hour training & expected to make sales & if not you've lost your job lol. Waste of time don't bother.
Pros
Easy job to get
Cons
Everything else
I worked for the company for a long time.They driven me to strive to my best ability witch I found have boosted my confidence to became top telesales. They are a exceptional company to work for and any person that work for the company would always push you to your best, I've had a few sales jobs but nothing like this anyone that does start can become your dream job like me feel free to ring in and ask for angel to confirm this job is a dream.

The most challenging part of the job was getting potential customers to listen to you for five minutes before ending call on you abruptly. However some days was pleasant and fun to work, along with the support and training provided.
