Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for routing callers to agents in a call-center routing environment. An exemplary method includes identifying caller data for at least one caller in a queue of callers, and skipping a caller at the front of the queue of callers for another caller based on the identified caller data. The caller data may include one or both of demographic data and psychographic data. Skipping the caller may be further based on comparing caller data with agent data associated with an agent via a pattern matching algorithm such as a correlation algorithm, hi one example, if the caller at the front of the queue has been skipped a predetermined number of times the caller at the front is the next routed (and cannot be skipped again).
