As a Benefits Manager, there will be times where you have to provide customer service to the employees within your organization. You will be their point of contact when they have questions about benefits and possibly compensation. Because of this, the interviewer wants to know how well your customer service skills are. Share with the interviewer your experience with providing customer service.
