1
Good morning.
2
Thanks for taking the time to interview with me today.
3
I'm Rachel.
4
Nice to meet you, Rachel.
5
Thank you so much for this opportunity.
6
Can I call you Candice?
7
Sure.
8
That's how everyone calls me.
9
Are you nervous?
10
I absolutely am.
11
Yeah.
12
Oh, don't worry.
13
This is just a conversation between two people.
14
So I'm going to be asking questions about yourself,
15
about how good of a fit you are to the job.
16
Pretty basic questions because this is just an initial interview, you know?
17
So just think of this like we're having a light chat about yourself.
18
I will definitely try.
19
Perfect.
20
So let's start easy.
21
Why don't you, of course,
22
tell me something about yourself.
23
Okay.
24
So I began my studies in communications at Eastern Dabau Academy,
25
which helped me develop my interpersonal and analytical skills.
26
Unfortunately, I had to step back due to financial challenges.
27
But during my time in college,
28
I participated in various group activities and even led some of them,
29
which helped me hone my communication skills.
30
While I might not have completed my degree,
31
I believe that the skills I've acquired make me a good fit for this role.
32
And why did you consider joining our call center?
33
A friend of mine who used to work here spoke very highly of Questchon's positive work environment and teamwork.
34
And I believe that I want to be a part of that,
35
especially with my background in communications.
36
I know I can contribute to the company.
37
And honestly, I have been drawn to roles where I can directly help people and find solutions.
38
Okay.
39
But do you have a grasp of the day-to-day duties of a call center agent?
40
Definitely.
41
So a call center agent handles customer increase,
42
troubleshoots issues, and could also sometimes sell products and services depending on the brand's needs.
43
They also just do not address concerns,
44
but they make sure that each interaction is as positive as it could be because it reflects the image of the brand.
45
Okay.
46
So about schedules, you know,
47
graveyard shifts, holidays, shifting hours,
48
how do you feel about that?
49
Well, I've prepared myself mentally for it.
50
I've researched a lot about the job.
51
I know that this could involve some considerable amount of stress,
52
and I'm prepared for it.
53
For me, adaptability is the key in today's world where everything is changing.
54
And how would you handle stress or handle challenging customers?
55
well for me i've always thought of handling difficult customers as
56
a sort of a friendly debate uh the goal is not about winning
57
but more about understanding the other person's perspective putting yourself in their shoes
58
and then coming up with ways on how to to cooperate with the other person
59
so I think I would approach customer service that way.
60
Well that's a refreshing take on it.
61
You know seeing it as a chance to connect instead of a hurdle definitely makes a lot of difference
62
when it comes to dealing with customers and dealing with stress.
63
But how would you handle feedback or criticism?
64
For me feedback is more like a roadmap.
65
It shows where I am and where I need to go.
66
So as long as it's a constructive feedback, I really appreciate it.
67
And I would welcome it with open arms because it helps me grow and do better.
68
It's not always easy to hear,
69
but it's beneficial in the long run.
70
Good perspective.
71
And with the current global situation,
72
how comfortable are you with remote work or potential changes to the work environment?
73
I'm quite comfortable.
74
I've set up a quiet space at home with my laptop.
75
And I believe I'm quite tech savvy enough to be able to keep up with the tools.
76
And I heard that there's a lot of tools,
77
but I think I can keep up with it.
78
I believe in staying updated and flexible,
79
so I'm confident with my ability to work remotely.
80
And what about your studies?
81
Any plan to resume it in a year or two?
82
I've definitely thought about it,
83
but I finally decided that I would first work for a living
84
for three years and then decide what to do from there.
85
I feel like at this point,
86
the most beneficial step for me would be to earn money for a living and gain some real world experience.
87
And before we wrap this up,
88
I see here in your resume that you worked in a local cafe during your college years.
89
Can you tell me a little bit more about that experience
90
and how you think it prepares you for this role as a call center agent?
91
Absolutely.
92
So at the cafe, I managed the front counter.
93
I was the one taking orders from customers.
94
But for me, it was never just about taking orders.
95
It was also about adjusting to customers and making sure that they get the best experience possible.
96
I had to adapt quickly,
97
especially during rush hours, and also communicate clearly with both the customers and the kitchen staff.
98
It only lasted for a few months
99
because i had to go back to school
100
that was only for the summer but for me it taught me patience
101
and the importance of clear communication and adaptability
102
and i think these experiences are crucial for a call center position yes that is definitely a relevant experience
103
and do you have any questions for me?
104
Yes, I'm curious.
105
What is the typical progression of someone who starts as a call center agent in your company
106
and wants to maybe in the future climb to a higher position?
107
Okay, well, that's a great question.
108
So agents who perform consistently well can move up to become team leads,
109
QA, trainers, or move into other departments depending on the skills.
110
And the good thing is we also have a program called
111
Ascend where promising agents have the opportunity to receive training for whatever roles they're trying to be promoted to.
112
Wow.
113
Wow.
114
That's very interesting.
115
Thank you so much for explaining that.
116
My pleasure.
117
So Candice, based on our conversation today,
118
you have passed the initial interview.
119

120

121

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
