  • Strong investigative skills with a focus in money related tickets (Account Takeover, Fraud, Refund abuse, etc)
  • Strong communication skills to accurately understand a customer's problem and know when to ask for more before escalating to another team. T1 agents should have all information needed (as much as reasonably possible) before passing off to another team

  • Other areas as agreed by Apex management within position criteria if SLA is not adversely impacted
