What we love: There are thousands of university-educated women like Uche that can’t find work locally. The young people of Nigeria make up more than half of the population—and we’re putting them on the map; the world’s new favorite support agents. We give them the tools they need to be experts in their fields—which is why we have extremely high standards for them.
Every Hugo employee undergoes a comprehensive cognitive and psychographic assessment before they’re hired. This is done to measure learning aptitude, assess comprehension skills, and ensure a high EQ during the recruiting process—so you can trust us when we say we’ve definitely got the right person for the job.
Oh, and yeah—they’re not terrible looking, either.
