The interviewer wants to hear your excitement when it comes to being the recipient of excellent customer service. The way you answer this question will show the interviewer that you are well aware of the difference between average and VIP-level service! Explain the situation, describing what stood out to you, and what you did to express your thankfulness for the stand-out service.
"Recently, I went to Store ABC to look for a particular pair of shoes that I saw in their online store. However, it turned out they did not have my size at their location. The salesperson immediately offered to order the shoes for me from another location and had them shipped to my house. This service stood out to me as over and above, considering most brick and mortar retail stores tell you to check out their other location, forcing the customer to do the legwork. I expressed my appreciation by getting the associates' name and sending an email of praise to her manager later that day."
