SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ROUTING COMMUNICATIONS TO AGENTS BASED ON ATTRIBUTES

In one embodiment, agents are each assigned a plurality of attributes based on their skills. Each attribute may be associated with a skill such as accounting, technical support, language, etc. In addition, some attributes may have an associated score or proficiency level that describes how proficient the agent is with respect to the attribute. Administrators may then create rules to route communications to agents based on the associated attributes and a customer category that is assigned to the communications.
