How to Write a Good Customer Service Resume

Posted by Ballarat Resume on 24 Aug 2026

Making a professional customer service resume or CV (Curriculum Vitae) requires highlighting your relevant qualifications and experience. A well-written resume or CV and a strong cover letter, in addition to an impressive LinkedIn profile, can make a an enormous difference when applying for an offer. We at Ballarat Resume, we specialize in providing CV and resume writing services as well as cover letter writing and LinkedIn profile optimization services to make your profile stand out the others. In this article, we will review how to portray customer service on a resume or CV, demonstrate capabilities in customer service on your CV or resume and give tips regarding how to present your customer service skills.

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

When you are describing your service to customers experience, emphasize specific roles and tasks. Make use of action verbs, such as "assisted," "resolved," or "responded," to describe your tasks. In addition, you should include any pertinent metrics, such a customer satisfaction ratings, to illustrate your impact.

How to show the skills of customer service in a resume or CV:

In addition to describing your experience, be sure to highlight specific skills that relate to customer service. This includes solving problems and communication. Include any relevant certifications or training including a certificate from a consumer service course or a certification with a particular customer care software.

What should I write about when it comes to customer services skills?

When you write about your customer service skills, focus on the most essential and relevant skills needed for the job you’re applying for. For example, if your job involves a lot of phone contact, make sure you highlight your previous experience and abilities in phone customer service.

How do I write about my experience with customer service?

When you write about your customer service experience, make sure you use specific examples and quantify your accomplishments. As an example, instead of writing "Helped customers with their inquiries," say "Assisted an average of 50 customers a day with their questions, which resulted in a 90percent percent satisfaction."

Following these steps, you can create your customer service resume your CV and cover letters and LinkedIn profile that highlights your relevant experience and skills which make you a desirable applicant for positions in customer service. Make sure to proofread your resume or resume and letter before you submit it. You may also consider having professional assistance from Ballarat Resume if you need assistance.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Tanja thank you so much for the fast turnaround and also how well you updated my CV. I had a particular job advert I needed responses for and to update my CV at the same time. Tanja provided excellent customer service and contacted me within a day and worked to the tight timeframe I had. I would definitely use SR again and highly recommend Tanja herself. Thank you again.

Cannot speak highly enough about my new resume and cover letter. Tanja has done an amazing job. I haven’t needed a resume for 26 years as I’ve been with the same employer but due to the current situation with COVID-19 I’m out there having to get back into the game. The advantage of Tanja writing my resume is that she has a background in HR and understands what looks good and the importance of making an impact with key words. Tanja also helped me apply for a job with that required specific targeted responses. Many thanks great work and an effortless and seamless process.

One of the most professional businesses I have come across. I can not thank Ballarat Resume enough for their work and because of their skillful resume writing I managed to get a job 2 weeks after I sent out my revised resume. Thank you again and I will be telling everyone about you.
Sandra Tricoli
I had Tanja write my personalised cover letter and resume, I cannot fault their quality and I'm hugely impressed it was worth every dollar. I'm just trying to make a career change and I feel this resume and cover letter were the missing link between me getting an interview or missing out. So well done to the team at Ballarat resumes and a personal shout out to Tanja.
