It is essential to offer excellent customer service in the construction industry, or companies will go out of business. Providing exceptional service keeps customers coming back and recommending the company to others. The interviewer wants to hear how you describe excellent customer service to gauge if you would be the ideal candidate for the position. If hired, you will represent the company and interact with clients, so the interviewer wants to hear that providing excellent customer service is important to you.

You want to avoid saying something cliche like 'the customer is always right.' That statement does not show how you provide excellent customer service, which the interviewer wants to determine. A better response is to describe how you offer exceptional customer service by greeting the client with a smile, asking how they are doing, listening to their questions and concerns, and addressing any concerns they might have. Customer service also includes completing work to their satisfaction.

"I describe excellent customer service as taking the time to greet customers by name, being positive and happy around the client, addressing any concerns they might have, and ensuring they are completely satisfied by my work at the end of a project. If they are displeased with any aspect of the job, I will make sure to take care of the issue until they are satisfied."
