October 5th to October 9th is Customer Service Appreciation week!

Customer Service is demanding work. It takes knowledge, sound judgement, patience, sound problem solving and the ability to respond thoughtfully even in difficult situations.

This Customer Service Week, we’re recognizing every customer service professional, across every industry and in every capacity.

Whether you’re entering orders, making sure product arrives on time, in a call center answering a high volume of calls, assiting people face to face, answering questions for a municipality, or managing a difficult situation, your work matters. You handle competing priorities, solve complex problems, and support other departments and people who depend on your help.

Throughout my recruitment career, I’ve had the privilege of placing many customer service representatives. I have tremendous respect for the responsibility these roles carry and the people who do this for work every day.

To those I’ve worked with, and to everyone working in customer service: we appreciate, respect and celebrate you.

Thank you for everything that you do.
