What Is a Customer Service Representative?
A customer service representative is a professional who works either directly with or directly for the customers and prospective customers of a given company. Representatives are often seen as the outward “face” of their company because they are usually the first people customers talk to when they have a question or concern. Sometimes they are problem solvers, and other times they are trying to initiate sales; they may also simply help clients find information. They may work in many different kinds of companies, and their job descriptions can be quite varied.
