Essential skills for Customer Service Representative
Empathy
People in this role should genuinely want to help other people. That desire begins with empathy: willingness to understand another persons’s experience and see it thorough their eyes.
Strong communicator
This job is about communicating with other people. CSR need to communicate well both verbally and in writing. Communication is about listening, then clearly articulating ideas and information in an authentic way.
Internet Savvy
The internet and mobile computing provide us with more ways than ever to communicate with each other. We refer to these as channels, and we often provide customer service simultaneously on many different channels.
Growth mindset
Products, technology, and policies will change over time, and our CSR will need to change with them. We look for people who have demonstrated a drive for learning and growing.
Master of Simplicity
When a customer makes the effort to reach out and ask for help, it’s the CSR’s job to quickly assess the problem, sort it all out, and then present the customer with the simplest answer possible.
Perseverance
Our colleagues need to have the ability to resolve issues by challenging themselves, spending time researching a case or file, and being able to stay focused on long-term goals. People who persevere show steadfastness in doing something despite how hard it is or how long it takes to reach the goal.
