Please refer to the evaluation for more insight.


  • Classification: Customer Service Representative
  • Topic(s): Customer Service
Interview Question:

Can you describe a time when you successfully resolved a customer's issue over the phone?

Candidate's Answer:

College.Mentioned.Please.

AI Evaluation:

Your answer, "College. Mentioned. Please," is not appropriate or sufficient to the interview question. The interviewer is seeking a specific example from your experience that demonstrates your problem-solving skills and ability to assist customers effectively. Instead, your answer is vague and lacks context, making it unclear how it relates to customer service or any resolution of a customer issue.

To improve your answer, consider using the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to structure your response. Start by briefly describing the situation, explaining the customer's issue, and stating what was at stake. Then outline the actions you took to resolve the issue, providing specific details about your communication and problem-solving strategies. Finally, share the positive outcome and any feedback you received from the customer.

For example, you could say, "In my previous job at a retail store, a customer called frustrated about a defective product. I listened actively to their concerns, empathized with their situation, and offered to replace the item. I promptly arranged for the exchange and ensured they received their new product within two days. The customer thanked me for my quick resolution and even left a positive review about their experience."

By providing a comprehensive example, you'll demonstrate your customer service skills and your ability to handle challenges effectively.

Rating: 1/5. Your response does not answer the question adequately and lacks detail.
