A headset can be one of the most important tools in a home office. In fact, it is absolutely essential if your job involves providing customer service support.
Work at home customer service agents need to have their hands free to type on their keyboard or maneuver their mouse. Therefore, when working in a phone support position workers are required to have a headset with an attached microphone that allows them to hear as well speak to their customers.
In the post How to Choose Your Work at Home Headset, I discussed a number of options to consider when looking for the perfect headset for your work at home job. Here is a quick review of things to think about when considering preferences and comfort for your headset.
You can choose from a number of options and features:
- Single-sided or double-sided headsets
- Wearing styles: over-the-ear, behind-the-head, or over-the-head headsets or even a combination of these
- Microphones: Noise-canceling(boom) or voice-tube
- Quick disconnect capability
- On-device volume control
- Foam or leatherette ear cushions
