Support specialist Interview Questions
A support specialist is an individual with knowledge about computers, electronics or software who uses this knowledge to help customers who are experiencing technical problems. When applying for a support specialist position, interviewers want to know whether you have a strong understanding of the technology you are working with and whether you have the communication skills necessary to assist clients.
Top Support Specialist Interview Questions & How To Answer
Here are three top support specialist interview questions and tips on how to answer them:
Question No. 1: What is your troubleshooting process?
How to answer: An employer wants to make sure that you have a strong understanding of their technology. They also want to know if you are organised and able to articulate your process clearly enough for a customer to be able to understand the technology as well. Your answer to this question can show your organisational skills as well as your experience with technology and customer service.
Question No. 2: How do you work with difficult clients?
How to answer: Working as a support specialist can be frustrating when assisting difficult clients. An interviewer wants to know if you are able to remain professional and helpful even when working with a customer who is being troublesome.
Question No. 3: Are technical skills or people skills more important for this position?
How to answer: An employer wants support specialists who have technical skills and people skills. Your answer to this question is a matter of opinion, but make sure you explain how you understand that technical skills and customer service skills are both required to be as effective in the position as possible.

When I found Dr. Paul I was in desperate need of bringing my ex lover back. He left me for another woman. It happened so fast and I had no say in the situation at all. He just dumped me after 3 years with no explanation. I contact Dr.Paul through his website and He told me me what i need to do before he can help me and i did what he told me to, after i provided what he wanted, he cast a love spell to help us get back together. Shortly after he did his spell, my boyfriend started texting me again and felt horrible for what he just put me through. He said that I was the most important person in his life and he knows that now. We moved in together and he was more open to me than before and then he started spending more time with me than before. Ever since Dr. Paul helped me, my partner is very stable, faithful and closer to me than before. I highly recommends Dr. Paul to anyone in need of help.

Didn't get that far! Phone interview was set up, then their on-staff recruiter canceled by email(!) just a few hours before the appointment. She never rescheduled; I had to chase her down a week later to learn that job was now "on hold" with no timetable. Now I'm quite tenured in work matters, but this one is a record for a quick and mysterious reversal! Immediately after, I officially withdrew my interest in this clown outfit; while waiting for the illustrious recruiter for the reschedule that never came, I had checked out reviews of the co. here and on Indeed, and it all made sorry sense. Run away!

I agree with Marie, this company bit more than they could chew building a state of the art facility ($250,000 a month on mortgage) and call it WHQ...they moved their production line from woodland only to lay them off (25ppl) on the first week. They do only promote people that are related to each other. Their website still says they are hiring, I recommend to look elsewhere. Less

Thank you for your support. I feel it my duty to share such experiences, for I visit helpful sites like Glassdoor to read user reviews when I'm checking out a prospective employer. I'd like to chat, however, w/the person(s) behind this "4.1% unemployment" scam in the media, for I'm having just as much trouble now finding work as I was in the midst of the recession; it's become an applicant vs employer war anymore!

Be glad it did not pan out! They just let go 175 employees before Thanksgiving. Too top heavy in management and it's all family there and they promote only those that are relatives to owners of the company. Less
