So I just got off of the phone to a company I have applied for a job at. I hate the interview process. There's always the same questions and I never have the answers for them. The big one is "can you tell us a time when you gave great customer service?" what I can't say every time can I? I don't mean to blow my own horn but I try to give everybody the same service. I always say in these situations that I serve people how I want to be served. Nobody wants to be served like they are a piece of shit.
So anyway I pick an example of serving a customer. Normally them coming in angry and leaving happy. I've even used a colleagues experience and passed it off as my own. I mean everybody lies. But I just wonder what the best story these people asking have heard back?
"I was helping a customer get something from a high shelf when they went into labour. I had to deliver the baby myself. They named the baby after me and the customer still managed to buy what she wanted. I then cleaned up the mess left and my manager gave me a promotion. Oh and did I mention the baby was the reincarnation of Jesus? "
Still I now have to wait to hear back. And even then I have to leave my other job before I start so I doubt they will hire me as they will have to wait for about a month. Also the job may end up being shit.
