Customer Service Cover Letter Writing
Employers that hire customer service professionals need to know that they can handle clients quickly, efficiently and with great service. Customer service is usually about solving problems a manager does not want to handle. So if you can deal with customers, fix their problems and even make them happy about products / services, your manager will be grateful. The cover letter needs to convey to the hiring manager that you can master this aspect of the job.
Achievements may not always be easy to quantify, but still try to let the employer know that you can save cost and improve business. If previous jobs included a quota then put that in the cover letter. If you have experience with inside sales, then make sure to pinpoint this fact. In the least, let the employer know that your work resulted in a large number of content customers. If you had no complaints from customers then that in itself is an achievement worth noting.
