Customer Support Specialist Question:

Handling an irate customer is difficult whether you are doing so in person or on the telephone. As a customer service representative, you are the person who will be required to resolve issues on the customer’s behalf. This means that you will likely speak with several angry or even irate customers every day. “I will listen clearly and carefully, reassure the customer that I can handle the issue at hand, and then use all of my knowledge and resources to find the best and fastest solution to the problem. I will relay the solution to the customer in a pleasant tone and follow up with that customer to ensure that the resolution was implemented as planned” is a very impressive answer.
