How to Write a Customer Service Resume

Posted by Hastings Resume on 22 Aug 2025

A successful customer service resume or CV (Curriculum Vitae) should highlight your pertinent knowledge and experience. A well-written CV or resume as well as a compelling cover letter, as well as a professional LinkedIn profile, can make a the difference in obtaining a job. We at Hastings Resume, we specialize in offering resume and CV writing services covering letter writing, as well as LinkedIn profile optimization to help to stand apart from the competitors. In this article, we’ll go over how to describe the customer service aspect on a resume or CV. We will also show how you can demonstrate your skills in customer service on a CV or resume and give tips on what to write about customer service skills.

How to describe the quality of service you provide on the resume or CV:

When describing your customer service experience, you should focus on specific roles and tasks. Use action verbs, like "assisted," "resolved," or "responded," to describe your tasks. Include any pertinent metrics, like satisfaction levels of customers to demonstrate the impact you have made.

How do you present customer service capabilities on a resume or CV:

Alongside the description of your experience, you need to mention specific abilities that are applicable to customer service, including the ability to communicate and solve problems. Include any relevant certifications or training, such as a customer service class or a certificate for a particular customer service software.

What do I write about about customer skills in service?

When writing about customer service skills, focus on the most vital and relevant skills for the job you’re applying for. For example, if your job requires a lot of telephone communication, emphasize your knowledge and skills in phone customer service.

What do I do to write the customer experience I had?

When writing about your customer service experience, make sure you use specific examples and quantify your achievements. For instance, instead telling the reader that you "Helped customers with questions," say "Assisted an average of 50 clients per day by answering their queries, which resulted in a 90% satisfaction rate."

With these suggestions, you can create your customer service resume Cover letter, and LinkedIn profile that highlights your skills and experience which make you a desirable candidate for customer service jobs. Remember it is important to edit and proofread your resume or your CV or cover letter prior to sending it out and think about having professional assistance from Hastings Resume if you need assistance.

I felt like I wasn't getting anywhere with my job hunting so I thought I would give the professionals a go. I was so pleased with the thoroughness from Hastings Resume. They make you do a little bit of work for them so they can get a really good feel of who you are about, they then take your talents and showcase them in a truly polished professional series of documents. Thanks for getting me out of the jobhunt blues!
