Become a Bingo Chat Moderator.

Quite some time ago I met a woman online, who told me that her job was that of an online bingo chat host. She told me that she worked from the comfort of her home, on her computer, which immediately grabbed my attention!
I asked my online chat friend how she obtained a position as a bingo chat manager, she told me that a friend of hers had the same job and she found out about it much the same way I just did. She told me that to get her job as an online bingo chat host she put her resume up at cmoftheyear.com and then started emailing online bingo managers.
My next idea was to narrow my search down to results that contained all of the keywords ‘chat games, chat host, online bingo’. Now I was getting somewhere! I honestly had never at this point played a single game of bingo online in my life. I had however played fairly often at my local bingo hall, so I did have an understanding of how the game worked.
I visited several of the bingo sites searching out links for job openings and who to contact, before I knew it I had compiled quite a decent sized list of new contacts. Most of the sites asked that I submit my experience with a cover letter. Being a natural sales person, I knew that emphasizing the fact that I did not actually have any experience at all as an online bingo CM wouldn’t get me real far.
Instead of dwelling on the experience I lacked, I wrote a simple email detailing the experience I did have. I have a pretty decent typing speed I can navigate multiple windows online with ease. I can carry a conversation online fluidly, I can take control of a situation and keep it from getting out of hand, I am personable, cheerful and outgoing, etc. If I thought it might pertain to the job I listed it.
Within a week or two I had some replies and phone interviews, by the end of the month I’d had a couple offers, and before I knew it, I had a job that paid by the hour, from my dining room, managing an online bingo chat room!

I would be delighted to become a Bingo host, I have moderated "Patient Uk" although it isn't set in a live chat room but questions were often needed to be answered and help required for directions for members. I do believe I have the drive to become a CM, I am friendly and as I have seen actual games inplay online I am fully aware what the job role entails. I can deal with all sorts of programs regarding Word, Excel etc, as I am a fast learner. I would like a position between 16-20 hours a week working from home (if that's possible).
I look forward to hear from you :D.
