Dr. Willem Dreessingel 42, 6836CT Arnhem, The Netherlands
Overview
I am looking to bring my well-honed client focused mentality, thoroughly practiced client-focused online, oral, and interpersonal communication skills externally and internally to succeed in this company.
Pertinent experience and skills I possess for the posted position include:
1. Good communication in a manner reflecting excellent professionalism that has enabled me in the past to connect not only with the client and meet their demands to satisfaction, but also internally in a team of 14.
2. Excellent listening skills that have enabled me to understand the main ideas of the person I am communicating with, grasp the specifics of a particular situation that I am dealing with, and therefore provide appropriate acceptable satisfactory answers
3. Problem solving skills: I have always been committed and have a sincere desire to solve the customers' problems. I have learned and know how to ask the right kind of questions to be able to provide an effective solution. I have an excellent grasp of time prioritization.
4. Flexibility: I noticed on the application the need for the applicant to be flexible in working shifts. I want to state that this is not a problem for me but that is not the limit of my flexibility. With regards to the client I am able to adapt to a customer’s unique needs and changing circumstances, I am open to criticism, and willing to implement all necessary changes attained from customer feedback.
5. Initiative and proactiveness: As is always a key element, I take initiative and I am proactive in anticipating customer problems. I admit when I am wrong, offer a sincere apology where necessary and do not shy away from taking responsibility when issues under my purview go wrong. I am also quick to implement corrective actions for long term and short term, to solve the issues at hand and where possible avoid future ones.
I find respect to be key in any relationship so I look to bring a very high degree of professionalism to the team if accepted for this position. I am friendly, and courteous direct but diplomatic, with a good sense of humour in my dealings with everyone. I always try to show respect for the customer, team members, company, and competitors while demonstrating confidence in myself and the organisation. I always try to find the adequate balance for the job at hand and the bigger picture of the overall customer relationship.
I am convinced that above listed abilities and more such as a solid work ethic, desire to excel and meet deadlines, a delight for a fast-paced environment and good factual recall all combine to make me qualified for the advertised position.
Objective
To succeed: Do all that needs doing, to ensure successful completion of all assignments
