SUMMARY OF SKILLS
I am Proficient on Microsoft programs including, but not limited to; PowerPoint, Excel, Word, Photoshop CS, and Front Page. I type 37-40 words per minute. I have sales training and background working sales for companies such as TradeHome Shoe Store Inc., Cox Cable, and DirecTV. I also have work experience in the call center industry and I understand that maintaining a company's reputation is important when talking with an upset client. I also know that the goal for 'complaint handling' is not to get the customer off the phone, but to; 1) build rapport with the client in order to comfort them, 2) apologize for any inconvenience, 3) de-escalate the complaint by assuring assistance to the upset customer, and 4) provide peace of mind by educating the customer about the corrective measures that will be used to resolve their issue.
