How to Deal With a Customer Complaint


One common area interview candidates fail is how to resolve customer complaints. Before you attend your job interview, make sure you learn the following five-step process for dealing with customer complaints and be able to recite it at your interview.

5 STEPS FOR DEALING WITH CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS

STEP 1: Listen to the customer and ask them questions to clarify the exact cause of the problem.

STEP 2: Apologize for the issue and show empathy for their situation. if you are genuinely apologetic this can help defuse the situation and prevent it from deteriorating.

STEP 3: Suggest a resolution to the complaint, and where possible, offer more than one solution. again, this empowers the customer and it can help make them feel valued.

STEP 4: Resolve the problem quickly based on the agreed resolution.

STEP 5: Apologize once more and the look at what steps could be taken to prevent the same situation from happening again.
