It’s that time of year. You are getting ready for tax season and your customer technical support needs will ramp up soon. But the Great Resignation is playing out and qualified people are reluctant to get back to work, post-pandemic.  How will you meet technical support demand for the 2022 tax season?
At Firstsource, we understand your business has very specific needs in line with tax filer demands and IRS readiness and deadlines. These are some of the major factors impacting your business:
- Up to several thousand experts are required for each tax season, but only for a short period.
- Tax season is only about three-and-a-half-month period from Jan to mid-April. There is also a lift in activity in October as those who filed extensions submit their taxes.
- Within the primary three-and-a-half-month period tax season, volumes vary substantially with two separate peaks: (A) Mid-Jan to early-Feb and (B) End-Mar to mid-April. During these peaks, volumes can spike as high as two-and-a-half to three-and-a-half times the interim troughs.
Firstsource provides highly skilled outsourcEdTechnical support for your customers who need assistance using your online tax filing interface. We have been delivering seasonal support for years and have powerful hiring engines to meet your demands.
