I guess this is why everyone is so eager to "upload to the cloud"...

Hi there and Thank you very much for getting in touch with us and we are delighted to have received your application!

The job consists of answering messages in English language sent to us by customers who are chatting on an online social community.  

Our operators reply to these messages using a web-based interface on their computer (you would be working from home). 

Because we need to chat about whatever the customer is interested in, it is highly likely that the conversations will be of an adult (flirty/erotic/explicit) nature with mostly male clients and we need agents with a very high standard of written English on par with native English language to converse with those customers – this is an absolute must that you are fluent in English and your written English must be of that high standard also. Perfect grammar, punctuation and capitalisation are all required.

You will not be hired if this criteria is not met.

You must have a laptop/desktop PC as our platforms do not function on mobile devices. A good strong high speed reliable internet connection is also required.

You must also have your own bank account or PayPal account to receive payments from us in Euros.

There are geographical areas we are not currently hiring from, if you are found to have been dishonest in your initial application as to where you are located, your application will be rejected.

You will be working as part of our UK Team – hence the importance for great English Language Skills. Payment is per message which is sent, 10 Euro cents per sent message.  Payment is made monthly, either by PayPal (be sure your account is set up to receive Euros) or by international bank transfer, whichever suits you better.

You are required to book shifts at least 12 shifts per week – each shift is one hour - we are busiest 00.00 to 10.00 UK times and we do ask that you book hours on the weekend too as we are very busy there. But we are very flexible too as we hope you can be.

We provide you with a training session with one of our UK Team Leaders who has worked on the chats since the inception, here you can get a proper example of the chats.

You would also be provided with a training manual in advance which comprehensively outlines anything you're remotely liable to encounter as well as a guide to effective messages. In reality though, I believe the job description and chat interface are fairly straightforward and simple. There is ongoing support all the way through your time with us too.

You would be hired by us, Cloudworkers Ltd on a freelance basis, meaning you are self-employed.

Cloudworkers Ltd has a contract with the chat owner, who runs the project for multiple languages and nationalities, and we provide the agents for his various projects. You will be working on all English speaking platforms.

How does this sound to you? Like something you are keen to be part of? If so, then please reply and I shall send out all the necessary paperwork for you to complete and return to me.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Dear Cloudworkers Company,
Sorry there are only two things I won't do to pay the bills. Porn and night shifts. This job would appear to combine the two so I will leave it open for a more suitably qualified sex worker. Thank you for the opportunity.
Cheers
Anthony Miller
