Can some of you guys please give me some good examples to this, Preferably in a call centre based environment. I've worked in one before for passport applications but I can't think of any real specific examples that wasn't already part of the role. I entered data, advised customers, escalated applications, sometimes transferred customers to different departments, and that's about it. But every interview I've gone to they asks me this question and I feel like my answer to this is what fails me everytime. Thanks

Bump!
Bump!
Think of examples of when you've went above and beyond; perhaps calmed a customer down who was due to fly on holiday and hadn't received her/his passport by expediting the application and winning her round with strong interpersonal skills? Who knows.
This question is merely about letting your employer know that you're focused on delivering exceptional service and understand why this is important in a commercial sense.
Why do you think this question is failing you at interviews? Have you asked for feedback - specifically about this question?

Remember, whilst it's nice to have a work based one, it doesn't have to be. Maybe you worked extra hard on a university project, or went out of your way to support someone, both of those would be valid answers too!
