If an interviewer asks this question, this is a great opportunity to discuss how impactful your previous work with customer service was. I would recommend avoiding an answer that highlights company perks and focus your answer on why the position was great because of the interactions you had.
Here is an interview answer example: "Customers called in with a technical issue, and within my department, we were typically able to fix the customers problem right then and there! It was a pleasure making a customer's day just by doing my job."

The most cherished moment in my previous position as a customer service representative is the smile on people's faces as each problem is resolved, being part of the solution gives me fulfillment. I also relate to those challenges and am able to learn from each experience.

Stephanie's Feedback
It's great to hear that you get genuine satisfaction out of helping customers solve their problems! Is there anything else that you enjoy about customer-service work? (For example: fast-paced environment, constant interaction with people, etc.) If so, you may wish to include a few additional details that you enjoy about customer service roles.
Prepare for real service situations and behavioral questions interviewers prioritize.
