Situational

Walk me through how you'd handle a call from a customer who is angry because a repair part still hasn't shipped after two promised dates.

ability to stay calm, empathetic, and solution-focused with a frustrated caller instead of getting defensive

How do you decide when a call is beyond what you should handle and needs to go to someone else?

judgment about escalation boundaries and whether they can hand off smoothly without dropping the customer

A customer calls asking about a promotion that ended last week and is upset it wasn't honored. What do you say?

how they balance company policy with keeping the customer's trust and staying friendly

What does good customer service sound like to you on a call where you ultimately can't fix the problem right away?

whether they understand that tone and honesty matter as much as resolution
