Cover letter sampleDear Hiring Team,

I am writing to express my interest in the Customer Service Representative position at Catawiki. With fluency in French and English and a background in customer support, I excel at resolving complex issues and mediating disputes. I am skilled in handling multiple channels such as phone, email, and chat, ensuring timely and empathetic responses. I am eager to join your team and contribute to your mission of delighting customers worldwide.

Sincerely, [Your Name]

Copy   Sample interview questionsCan you describe a time when you successfully resolved a difficult customer complaint?I once handled a dispute between a buyer and seller by calmly listening to both sides, identifying a fair solution, and following up to ensure satisfaction.

How do you manage multiple customer inquiries across different channels simultaneously?

I prioritize urgent issues, use time-blocking techniques, and rely on CRM tools to keep track of conversations without losing context.

The role requires working on weekends and public holidays. How do you maintain work-life balance?

I plan my schedule in advance and ensure I take time off during weekdays to rest and recharge, which keeps me focused and productive.

Why do you want to work at Catawiki?

I am passionate about unique objects and the excitement of auctions, and I appreciate Catawiki's mission to make special items accessible to everyone.

How would you handle a situation where a customer's request is against company policy?

I would clearly explain the policy with empathy, offer any alternative solutions, and escalate to a supervisor if needed to ensure the customer feels heard.

At Catawiki, every day brings the extraordinary! Whether it’s [Daniel Ricciardo’s Formula 1 Car](https://www.catawiki.com/en/c/583-sports-memorabilia), a [Woolly Mammoth’s Skeleton](https://www.catawiki.com/en/c/579-fossils), [Lady Gaga’s Jumpsuit](https://www.catawiki.com/en/l/10035805) or [Usain Bolt’s running shoe](https://www.catawiki.com/en/c/583-sports-memorabilia), we encounter exceptional objects every day.

* Available to work 40 hours per week.
* You are willing to commute to our Lisbon office and work in the office at least 2 days per week.
* You are flexible with working at least 2 weekends a month and on some public holidays.
* This role is based in Lisbon, Portugal.

“As a CS International Representative at Catawiki, I enjoy being part of a team that strives to provide an excellent level of service to our buyers and sellers. Working with customers who are passionate about their special objects keeps the role engaging and fulfilling. No two cases are the same, and we are continually learning and adapting to the fast-paced, exciting environment that working at Catawiki brings. It is valuable to be a part of such a diverse and inclusive company where our voices are valued and heard. We are equipped with the tools and support to thrive as specialists and grow within Catawiki.”.
