Work across multiple loan @types , including credit cards, auto loans, personal loans, overdrafts, and more.

Collaborate with third parties , including attorneys, bankruptcy trustees, and external collection agencies when necessary.

Stay flexible -some days will be call-heavy, others will focus more on skip tracing and research.
