Look at the job description. It should explicitly outline the skills that are necessary for this position. Choose two or three skills from that list that you think are most critical, and describe why these skills are so important to the role. Be sure to connect your strengths to these critical skills. Draw on your previous experience as a Customer Experience Specialist or any other means by which you acquired the necessary skills for this job.

"I think the most critical skill is effective communication. A customer experience specialist must be an active listener. If hired for this role, I would be fielding customer calls, and I would need to be engaged as a listener to do my job properly. I also need to be effective as a speaker and writer, both with customers and coworkers. That means being able to clearly describe a solution or being persuasive in conversations with customers, coworkers, or management. That means keeping a positive or even disarming tone, especially when it comes to hostile clients. Communication also includes body language. The client should know that I am listening and I can help them."
