In October 2021, I moved to the customer service department, where I started by taking inbound calls. This role honed my ability to handle customer inquiries and resolve issues efficiently, ensuring high levels of customer satisfaction. I quickly learned the importance of empathy and active listening in addressing customer concerns, which drove me to exceed performance metrics consistently.

As my proficiency in customer service grew, I took on additional responsibilities, transitioning to managing customer interactions via email. This expanded my skill set, as I adapted to maintaining a professional tone in written communication while ensuring that solutions were provided promptly.

Later, I ventured into the realm of digital customer engagement, where I handled inquiries through WhatsApp bots and social media platforms. This experience allowed me to embrace new technologies and understand modern communication preferences, enhancing the customer experience across multiple channels. I became proficient in crafting engaging responses and managing inquiries effectively, contributing to our team's overall success in digital outreach.

Additionally, I was honored to be appointed as the Second-in-Charge (2IC) in my department. In this leadership role, I supported management in operational tasks, mentored new team members, and helped foster a collaborative team environment. I also contributed to the social committee, where I played a role in organizing events and initiatives that promoted team morale and cohesion. My involvement in these activities not only helped build a positive workplace culture but also showcased my commitment to team engagement and employee satisfaction.

Overall, my diverse experiences at Clientele Life have provided me with a deep understanding of both sales and customer service dynamics in a call center setting. I take pride in my ability to adapt to various communication channels and thrive in a fast-paced environment, all while maintaining a customer-centric approach.
