The position required me to forecast the demand weekly and monthly, monitor current processes and assist customers with any needed documentation.

    • Nielsen

      Jan 2013 - Aug 2013
      Customer Service Representative

      I worked as a CSR for Nielsen Spain serving customers by providing product and service information and solving technical problems. I acquired skills in problem solving, listening abilities, conflict handling and customer service. Organization, patience and multi-tasking abilities were also essential requirements. A key learning point was that, even though this job was outside the area I want to focus on, it gave me the opportunity to know a foreign job market and allowed me to perfect my Portuguese. I was exposed to, and taught how to work effectively and efficiently in, a multicultural environment and also a different country with new languages. On a daily basis, I would assist my manager in overcoming any language barriers and/or cultural differences. Show less
