Tell me about a time you followed a script or protocol but still made the customer feel heard.

What they are checking: Whether they can reliably cover a later shift and commute to the site every day.

How do you handle a day with back-to-back calls when several callers are angry?

What they are checking: Whether they can reset between calls and avoid carrying frustration into the next conversation.

Tell me about a time you could not give a customer what they wanted. How did the conversation end?

What they are checking: Whether they can say no kindly and offer the best real option instead of overpromising.

What would you do if a caller wants information about another person's lab results?

What they are checking: Whether they protect patient privacy under HIPAA even when the caller pushes hard.

A doctor's office calls saying a specimen was lost and they need to know what happened. What are your next steps?

About the work

How do you confirm you understand what a caller needs before you start solving the problem?

What they are checking: Whether they ask clarifying questions and repeat back requests, which prevents wasted calls and repeat contacts.

How comfortable are you typing notes while talking, and why do good call notes matter?
