Volunteer Interviewer - Citizens Advice Bureau Christchurch Area

Short Description
Telephone and Face to Face Interviewer to provide free and confidential advice to everyone. Take the time to listen and equip clients with the information, options and support that fit their needs.

Detailed Description
It's all about the client - Our Volunteer Interviewers say: "I feel good about helping others", "I make a difference", "I learn things myself too".

It takes a team of trained Volunteers who give at least 3 hours a week of their skills, time and knowledge. We offer clients information to enable them to make informed decisions on anything from consumer rights, work conditions, neighbour disputes to relationship issues. There’s certainly never a dull moment .

Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.

Do you think it's inconsiderate for people to have lengthy phone calls on a bus? Vote in the poll, and add your comments below.
