When the hiring authority is aware of the types of service issues you commonly come across in your current role, they can more easily assess what you will be ready to handle in your upcoming position. Speak about the customer service issues that most often come across your desk, and what you do to repair disputes and improve customer service related scenarios in the future.

"The most common customer service issue I have come across in my current role is customers waiting too long in line. Due to budget cuts, we have been understaffed for quite some time now, which often means longer wait times. To help resolve this, I stay late during peak times. I help at the front desk, chat with people, and create an overall collaborative vibe. My efforts have alleviated the situation significantly, and customer complaints have dropped approximately 15%."
