INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
A detailed answer and analysis of a tough interview question from Matt & Nan DeLuca, authors of the best selling "Best Answers to the 201 Most Frequently Asked Interview Questions" and "More Best Answers to the 201 Most Frequently Asked Interview Questions"

What does "customer service" mean to you?

Think of yourself as a customer -- what do you expect from salespeople ... regardless of the circumstances and/or the problem.  An example may be "Customer service is a two-piece reaction.  First---respect; second -- problem solving."   See if that makes sense and if you sound convincing when you do practice it.   If you can give a brief story or two of what you have witnessed as extraordinary examples of customer service behavior.  By using yourself as a focal point you will be able to enunciate clearly your understanding of customer service.
