Section 1[sửa | sửa mã nguồn]

For each question in this section, select the most appropriate response.

1. One of your customers has just said to you, "The service here is terrible." You should say:

  • "What is it about the service that you have not liked?"
  • "Would you like to fill out a complaint form? I can get one for you."
  • "I realize our service is poor today. We are understaffed, so I apologize."
  • "I am really sorry to hear you say that, but we are trying as hard as we can."

2. A customer came to your department with an urgent question. You promised her that you would collect information about her question and answer it by noon. It will take you at least 20 minutes to gather the information needed to provide an answer. It is now 11:50 a.m. Your supervisor just scheduled a 30-minute meeting to start at noon. This meeting is for all employees in your department. You decide to:

  • Find the customer after the meeting and apologize.
  • Ask your supervisor if you can be late for the meeting.
  • Arrange to have the customer call you back at a better time.
  • Contact the customer right away and hope that she can be found.

3. Terry, who has been an employee in your department for about six months, can be careless about safety. He hasn't been involved in any serious accidents, but he's had many near misses. Your supervisor asked you to introduce a new employee, Susan, to the department and to help with her training. Terry overheard and offered to show Susan the safety procedures. Your supervisor thought that would be a great idea. What should you do?

  • Tell Terry that you think it would be better if he let you do the training.
  • Tell your supervisor that Terry has had many near misses and not much experience.
  • Let Terry give Susan the safety training.
  • Volunteer to help Terry train Susan on the safety procedures.

4. It's been a very busy day, and you have just gotten a customer complaint. This is the third time today that this same customer has complained to an employee about the same problem. However, it's the first time that you have spoken with her. Your best course of action is to:

  • Ask the customer to wait and ask the employee who last dealt with the customer why the problem was not fixed.
  • Ask the customer to wait and ask the employee who last dealt with the customer to speak to her.
  • Apologize to the customer and ask if she would like to speak to a supervisor.
  • Apologize to the customer and ask how you can help fix the problem.

5. Each shift, you have to complete several tasks before leaving for the day. It is near the end of your shift and you probably will not have enough time to finish all of your assigned work before leaving. The best thing you can do is:

  • Think about changing your routine to help finish your work on time in the future.
  • Tell the employees on the next shift that the tasks are unfinished and ask them to finish them.
  • Explain the situation to your supervisor and ask for help.
  • Leave for the day and complete the unfinished tasks tomorrow.

6. One of your customers is irate and has just yelled at you because you were slow in responding to a request he had made. You decide to:

  • Call the manager and ask her to deal with the customer.
  • Tell him you are sorry and explain the reason for the delay.
  • Explain to the customer that he is receiving the same service as everyone else.
  • Tell the customer you will help him as soon as he calms down and stops yelling.

7. An employee in your department has been coming to work 20 minutes late for the past week. The rest of the employees have picked up the slack so far, but everyone is becoming angry. What should you do?

  • Explain to the employee how being late hurts the department's ability to get things done and that she can help by getting to work sooner.
  • Warn the employee that you will speak to the supervisor the next time she is late.
  • Tell the employee that it's unfair to everyone when she comes in late.
  • Bring up lateness in the next department meeting.

8. One of your coworkers frequently complains about problems she's having with a customer. You decide to:

  • Tell her what you believe she is doing wrong.
  • Empathize with her and explain that some customers just cannot be happy.
  • Tell her to channel her energies into finding a solution instead of complaining.
  • Ask her if she would like to discuss the situation and try to find a solution together.
