      "If, for example, I have more than one customer who needs me, I will page for assistance so that nobody is left waiting. It's essential to have team members that you can rely on to step in when you become too busy."

      "I try to tackle the task that is most urgent first and make a plan of what I should do subsequently. I have no problem asking help from my coworkers if something needs to be done simultaneously such as in case of a medical emergency or if someone requires immediate assistance. I would also usually finish dealing with a customer's query before moving on to something else or else they would feel like we've forgotten them and ask someone else for the same."

      Amanda's Feedback

      I like that this answer highlights that you would put the customer's needs first before moving on to another task because excellent customer service is vital to your role. Your response also shows that you use a common-sense approach by tackling urgent items first.
