U.S. Special Agents – Work @ Home

The Mission:
To research and respond to 2-way text inquiries quickly and accurately. Special Agents combine ingenuity with research skills to solve real problems for real people every day. Some questions require a serious answer, others require a sense of humor, and some require both.

U.S. Requirements:
    * Must be at least eighteen (18) years of age
    * Must have a U.S. Social Security number or other taxpayer ID number
    * Must provide a U.S. bank account so we can direct deposit your payment
    * Must have a U.S. mailing address
    * Must agree to work as an Independent Contractor
    * Cannot already be employed by kgb or any of its subsidiaries
    * Must have access to a computer with a high-speed internet connection and Mozilla Firefox web browser

U.S. Qualifications:
    * Skilled Internet researcher
    * Ability to quickly identify keywords
    * Excellent grammar and spelling
    * Fast and accurate typing
    * Enthusiastic, passionate, creative, clever, curious, and dedicated

U.S. Work Schedules:
kgb Special Agents fit their “Special Agent life” around their normal activities. When the kids are at school. When they’re between college classes. Any time. Mornings. Afternoons. Or nights. Special Agents sign up for shifts based on their weekly availability. Since we want people 24/7, we’ve probably got just the times that work for you. And, since we know you want to be busy fielding questions when you are logged in working, weekly shift selection helps ensure exactly that.

Special Agents have the freedom to select when and how often they work. But those who remain inactive after 30 consecutive days will be removed from our ranks.

U.S. Performance Measures:
Special Agent text responses will be scored in accordance with kgb’s Quality Standards. Quality Standards will be explained in detail during kgb Special Agent Training.

U.S. Compensation:
Imagine making some extra spending money by answering questions while you sit in the comfort of your home. That’s what kgb Special Agents do. They use their superior question answering skills to earn extra dough just by being smart – and get paid for the questions that they answer.

Compensation is “per piece” and is based on response type:

* $0.10 (USD) for each full response – query is investigated and answered by the Special Agent

* $0.05 (USD) for each validation response – answer automatically populates from our Knowledge Database and is forwarded on by the Special Agent

Today, most work will be full response. As our Knowledge Database grows, the amount of validation response work will increase. Some of you might prefer full response work, and others of you might prefer to zip quickly through validation response work. And, sometimes, the choice will be yours as Special Agents are always presented with more than one question and can choose the question they want to field.

Given these choices, which would you pick? How would you describe the color green? (something like this would probably require full response)... or… Why is grass green? (something like this would probably require validation response). And, because of our weekly shift selection philosophy, we intend to keep the questions coming regardless of type, so that you are busy earning while you are logged in.

U.S. Payment Calendar:
Payments are direct deposited into Special Agent’s accounts once each calendar month. Payment is processed on the third Thursday of each month for the previous month's work.

U.S. Performance Measures:
kgb’s Quality Agents will be evaluated by Quality staff to ensure calibration with kgb Quality Standards.

U.S. Compensation:
Quality Agents provide important feedback to Special Agents and new Recruits quickly and efficiently via kgb’s Approval system.
Compensation is “per piece” and is based on approval or review type:

  * $0.08 (USD) for each standard review (10 per batch = $0.80 per batch)
