Hire customer service agents in the UAE

Your customer service agents are often the only people customers ever speak to. We recruit agents for phone, chat, email and WhatsApp, based in the UAE or working remotely.

What a good customer service shortlist looks like

Shortlisted agents have passed a mock call or chat built around your business, a written English test and, where needed, an Arabic test. We also check typing speed for chat and email roles.

  • Mock call or chat based on your products
  • Written and spoken English assessed
  • Arabic tested for local customer bases
  • Experience with Zendesk, Freshdesk or WhatsApp Business

Arabic-speaking agents in the UAE

Many UAE businesses need Arabic support for local customers. Arabic-speaking agents are usually hired in the UAE, and we test both Arabic and English for those roles.

Remote agents from the Philippines

Filipino agents bring strong neutral English and long experience in contact centres serving overseas customers. Because the Philippines is four hours ahead, a remote agent can also cover early mornings or evenings in the UAE.

South African agents suit English-language support during UAE office hours, with almost no time difference.

Testing customer service agents on real scenarios

A good interview does not always make a good agent. The mock call or chat shows how a candidate handles a frustrated customer, follows a process and closes a case, which is what you need to know.

Questions employers ask

Can remote agents use WhatsApp Business for our customers?

Yes. Remote agents can work through WhatsApp Business, chat tools and helpdesk software with the access you provide.

Do you recruit Arabic-speaking agents?

Yes, usually as UAE-based hires, with Arabic and English tested.

Can remote agents cover hours outside the UAE working day?

Yes. Filipino agents can cover early mornings and evenings in the UAE as part of a normal shift in the Philippines.

How do you test customer service skills?

Every candidate completes a mock call or chat scenario based on your business, plus language assessments.
