Customer service representative resume example

Support leaders hire for three things they can measure: how many customers you help, how well (CSAT, quality scores), and how often you solve it the first time. Put those numbers in your bullets and name the help desk you used — Zendesk, Salesforce, Intercom — because recruiters search for it.
