What does customer service mean to you?

What does customer service mean to you?

 

It's one of the most common question asked nowadays in the interview. If you are applying for a retail, customer service, or any other position where you have personal contact with consumers, your interviewer will be eager to find out how you would interact and provide them with assistance.

Good customer service means having a thorough knowledge of your inventory, experience with your products, and being able to help customers make the best choices for them. Don't say what you think the interviewer wants to hear – put yourself in the customer's shoes.

 The customer wants you to help them solve their problems, to positively enhance their experience and reduce their pain points. So, customer service is less about what you do or what you say and more about how you made them feel.

Note - General Tips:

 - Don't say what you think the interviewer wants to hear.

 - put yourself in the customer's shoes.

 - Highlight your customer service skill.

 - Back up your answer with an example.

Answer:  In my opinion, good customer service means having a thorough knowledge of your inventory, experience with your products, and being able to help customers make the best choices for them. It’s essential to be able to handle issues for customers and do your best to ensure they are satisfied. When I worked at my previous company, I used to spend a few minutes each month looking at the newest products, to make sure I was fully aware of their performance and could make knowledgeable recommendations to customers. Therefore, in general, Customer service means taking care of your customers' needs, catering to their wants, making sure that they are happy with your service/products that you provide.

Tough HR Interview Question To Answer - Tell us of one achievement that you are proud of?  This question might be asked in other ways. "What are your biggest achievements?" "What are you most proud of?"  "What was your biggest achievement in your current/last job?" "What has been the high point of your career so far?" An interviewer isn’t generally looking for a work-related achievement. However, a work-related achievement can still be highlighted in your answer. Interviewers like high achievers who are driven by a personal drive to excel, rather than motivated by others achievements.  This is your chance to let the employer know about some of your proudest achievements, and what you choose will display a lot about your sense of background, values, interest and what gives you satisfaction and in which kind of culture you really fit in. Some of the proudest accomplishments may be things like an employee of the month, awards from work or school,  s...
