Question 2 of 22

Have you ever had a job where you provided service over the phone? What key skills from that experience would you bring to this role?

"I've had two jobs where I did a lot of work with customers over the phone. In high school, I worked for a food chain and took customer orders over the phone. In my current job, I work the phone lines for incoming service calls. In each of those roles, the key to my success was mastering the business and the products that I worked with. With the pizza chain, it was knowing our entire menu off the top of my head and knowing the hot specials each day. In my current role, I know our entire product catalog and services our technicians provide to be able to help diagnose customer issues. While the knowledge was a priority, my friendly attitude and willingness to serve others took over and helped me be very successful in both of these roles; I look forward to bringing those skills to the team here."

      "Yes, I have had a few, many years ago I worked in a store and bakery where I would take calls and direct them to the right departments, take orders, deal with customer complaints, etc. Recently being a business owner I would deal with a multitude of calls ranging from customers to suppliers and contractors, so I feel I have the capacity to deal with over-the-phone matters"

      Marcie's Feedback

      I have had several jobs in the past that involved providing service to customers over the phone. For example, I worked in a bakery where I took calls and directed them to the right departments. In this role, I also took orders and handled customer inquiries and complaints. More recently as a business owner, I've used the phone to handle many business matters. I'm accustomed to talking to customers, suppliers, and contractors on the phone. All of these experiences have taught me to be patient, empathetic, and solutions-oriented. I believe that the skills I've learned, which include being a strong communicator and problem solver, will enable me to excel in this role.
