Grace : Ok great
Crowe Horwath LLP.: I will be asking you some few questions now. I believe you are set and ready to answer my questions....Right?
Grace: Yes sir
Crowe Horwath LLP.
Everyone faces times when we overlook some small, but important detail. Tell me about a time when this happened to you. What happened ? What did you do? How did it work out?
Grace Medley
As a whole, I try to be as detail oriented as possible. In my last position we were responsible for asking qualifying questions. In one situation a detail of the availability of internet service was overlooked. The customer could not get Internet to qualify for an ATT bundle deal, which is what they wanted. When the customer approached me with this problem I of course apologized for the mix up. At times the system sales reps used was not as accurate as ATT corporate. In turn I explained the the customer they would still be receiving money saving benefits and helped them locate internet service with another company. I have always had excellent customer service skills and I am extremely solution oriented. The satisfaction of the customer is very important to me.
Crowe Horwath LLP.: Alright, glad to hear about that.
Unto the next question.
How do you balance socializing with co-workers with accomplishing the job ? Can you give me some examples? What were the results ?
Grace: Building relationships with co-workers is very important. Building trust and a positive vibe will help the work place all around. I believe also it's great to build relationships so if you have a question or need help you feel comfortable going to that person, or vise versa.
In my last position as well as in teaching I always tried to go out of my way to make sure my coworkers know I am able to help them as much as I can if they are in need.
There is a time and a place for socializing. I believe a good way to utilize this is before work or at lunch. During work hours I try to be as focused as possible at what I have to do!
Crowe Horwath LLP.:I like that.
Grace: Great!
Crowe Horwath LLP.: In general, people have a choice of doing what is required of them or going beyond the basics. Tell me about a few times when you went beyond job requirements. What were the situations ? What did you do? What were the results ?
Grace: Honestly in the work place I am known for going above and beyond! In my last position I quickly rose to the top of the campaign. In 4 weeks I was #6 in the country of over 1200+ reps. I took the lead and trained the entire office and always offered to train in the field.
When I was teaching I took on the responsibility of writing the math curriculum for the entire school and even helped on a district level in my own time. I volunteered to work Saturdays and in the summer.
If a task needed to be done I am always the person my managers and principal could count on to get it done.
Crowe Horwath LLP.: Glad to hear about that.
