How To Write a Customer Service Resume

Posted by Ballina Resume on 1 Oct 2025

The process of creating a successful customer service cover letter or resume (Curriculum Vitae) must highlight your relevant knowledge and experience. A well-written CV or resume and a strong cover letter, along with an impressive LinkedIn profile, can make a the difference in obtaining a job. At Ballina Resume, we specialize in providing CV and resume writing services as well as cover letter writing and LinkedIn profile optimization to help you stand out from your other applicants. In this article, we will review how to portray customer service on your resume or CV. It will also highlight the skills of customer service on a CV or resume and offer suggestions for writing about customer service expertise.

How do you describe customer service on an application or resume:

In describing your customer service experience, concentrate on specific tasks and responsibilities. Use action verbs such as "assisted," "resolved," or "responded," to describe your tasks. Include any relevant metrics, such a the percentage of satisfaction with your customers, to show your contribution.

How to show customer service abilities in a resume or CV:

Alongside describing your experience, be sure to emphasize specific skills that are applicable to customer service, such as the ability to communicate and solve problems. Include any relevant certifications or training for example, a customer service course or a certificate with a particular customer care software.

What do I write about about customer skill in customer service?

When you write about your customer service skills, focus on the most important and pertinent skills to the position you’re applying to. For example, if your job requires a lot phone calls, then highlight your experience and skills in phone customer service.

How do I write the customer experience I had?

When writing about your customer service experience, you should use specific examples and measure your achievements. For instance, instead of using the phrase "Helped customers with their concerns," say "Assisted an average of 50 people per day with their questions, which resulted in a 90% satisfied rate."

If you follow these guidelines, you can create your customer service resume an application letter and LinkedIn profile which showcases your relevant experience and skills, making you a strong potential candidate for roles in customer service. Make sure to proofread your resume or CV and cover letter before the submission and also think about having professional assistance from Ballina Resume if you need assistance.

I found Tanya very prompt, she returned a resume and covering letter that looked and read very professionally within 4 days.

Fantastic I highly recommend this company they compiled an amazing resume and cover letter in PDF format and word, don't worry if you find computers frustrating as I do they will book an interview with you over the phone. The consultant took about a hour (less if you have everything organised which I did not). Also they will sort out your LinkedIn profile if you have one. Again amazing. Thanks again for your help. Rob

I ordered the Gold Package which was a Resume and Cover letter. I would honestly rate it an easy 10/10. Not only was the resume and cover letter perfect but the Customer Service is what really blew me away. Literally a few minutes after making the order I was contacted and a resume plan was formulated. Thank You Tanja :)

From the moment I called to get some information on the process involved, I was taken by how efficient and professional Tanja was with assisting me. Tanja was patient and prompt with her replying to me with my queries, she was more than happy to make many changes for me with no fuss at all.
