SALES SPECIALIST | VERKKOKAUPPA.COM

6/2020 — 5/2025

At Verkkokauppa.com, I worked in a versatile customer service and sales role that also included logistics, warehouse tasks, and handling after-sales matters such as returns and complaints. The position called for constant communication with both customers and team members, along with the ability to stay solution-focused even under pressure.

I was responsible for ensuring that customers received the best possible service, and I took pride in being able to help them find the right products and solutions for their needs. I also had the opportunity to work with a wide range of products, from electronics to home appliances, which allowed me to develop a deep understanding of the industry and its trends.

The job sharpened my communication and problem-solving skills, especially in moments that demanded quick thinking, ownership, and good judgment. In many cases, I was presented with incomplete details or unclear customer needs — but those situations became opportunities to figure things out, make decisions confidently, and still provide a strong customer experience.
