OpenTable is creating a new Customer Support team - come join us and be
part of the excitement! The most important thing you can bring to this
role is a passion for helping people. Your goal is NOT to get the
customer off the phone as fast as possible (unless that’s what the
customer wants). We expect you to go out of your way to not only fix the
problem, but have the customer finish the conversation with a smile and
with restored faith in OpenTable. You will be supporting both
restaurants and diners so there is no script that can accomplish this -
our customer base is diverse so you’ll need to be able to adapt to their
various styles accordingly. You will become our best marketing tool, and
will help foster a prosperous relationship with both our restaurants and
diners.
The right people for this role
- Have an interest (or background) in the restaurant or hospitality
industry
- It’s certainly not mandatory, but we do appreciate any relevant
experience
- Start each day with energy and enthusiasm (even if it takes a few
cups of coffee to get there)
- Enjoy being customer advocates
- You know what’s right for our customers and our company, and
will lobby to ensure both needs are met - even if it means
digging deep to find creative solutions
- Love to solve problems
- You’re the one your family and friends call when their
electronics are acting up, or when they need help getting new
devices set up
- Would never lie to our customers just to make them happy
- You value your integrity, and respect the trust our customers
place in OpenTable’s products and brand.
- Enjoy the flexibility and challenges that come with a script free
environment
- Using your experience and personality to provide excellent
service is a source of pride and accomplishment for you.
- Are self-motivated
- Downtime means you get to learn something new, or find a better
way to do something, rather than just sitting around
- Thrive on the opportunity to continually grow and improve
- You are not only receptive to feedback, but you actively seek
it, and look for ways to implement it
