Humana Inc., one of the country’s leading health and well-being companies, today announced plans to add more than 170 Telesales Specialists to its Direct Marketing Services (DMS) Telesales workforce in Phoenix.

The jobs will support Humana’s Direct Marketing Services (DMS) call center at 2231 E. Camelback Road, Phoenix. The company is hosting a Job Fair on Thursday, June 23 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the DMS call center, conveniently located in the Biltmore. Interviews will be conducted on-site during the job fairs, so interested candidates should bring several copies of their current resume.

The telesales positions will provide national phone sales and enrollment assistance for Humana’s Medicare benefit plans and senior products as well as specialty products. These consumer advocate positions will directly handle inquiries and provide guidance to help new and existing Humana members nationwide find benefit solutions to meet their needs.

Humana, a Fortune 100 company, is adding these jobs in order to meet the demand of the upcoming annual Medicare open enrollment period from Oct. 15 to Dec. 7, 2016. These positions will include approximately 45 full-time jobs with comprehensive benefits, and nearly 130 seasonal positions that will offer mostly full-time work for up to six months.

Humana pays for telesales associates to obtain their Arizona health insurance license, and also provides in-depth certification and sales training for new hires.
