FLITE Center ensures that our youth develop essential skills and competencies in daily living, decision-making and interpersonal communication; crucial modules to begin building their lives as productive members of the community. To achieve these goals, FLITE Center partners with nonprofit organizations, government agencies, corporations and private citizens.
At our Center, we offer a single, convenient point of access to the broad range of services and support systems needed by our youth to become successful adults. Upon arrival at FLITE Center, each youth is assisted with their individual needs in the following programs: education, employment, housing, health and wellness, human trafficking survivorship, resource navigation and system of care coordination.
Our mission is to guide those aging out of foster care and other vulnerable youth for successful transition to independence through education, employment, housing health and wellness, and system of care coordination.
As a data entry keyer for our growing company, you’re part of a functional team that focuses on getting things right the first time around. You get to work independently, with minimal supervision, to read our work orders, shipping orders and other customer service documents, and enter data from them into our computer systems. Your job is integral to the smooth operating of our company, as you verify the information before you enter it, and you key it in so it is consistent in format. We do understand that data entry for hours on end becomes repetitive, so we have built-in filing and copying time to vary your days and to keep your eyes sharp.
Job Responsibilities
• Read customer and shipping orders submitted in person, via the print catalog and online; decipher handwriting that can be hard to read
• Key data into specific Microsoft Excel fields (much of the work for the online orders should already be done for you); 10 percent of orders tend to be in person, 15 percent via catalog and the rest online
• Read and key in data from other source documents
• Verify that the data is accurate before you enter it
• Ensure that data is consistent throughout the system (example: if a customer has moved to a new address, you would check that the new address is in other pertinent places in the system)
• Report any data errors or anomalies to your supervisor
• Keep accurate and updated logs of ongoing work
• Perform filing, copying and other administrative duties for about three hours per day; expect to spend about five hours daily on data entry keying
