Receptionists will be asked to take on a number of clerical roles in the office, including answering phone calls, scheduling appointments, and working face-to-face with customers. Employers are looking for candidates with excellent organizational skills and who know how to maintain a positive, helpful attitude in the workplace. In an interview, you may be asked about any bookkeeping or scheduling experience you have. Be prepared with personal anecdotes about instances when you satisfied a frustrated customer or worked around a scheduling conflict.
They never asked me anything relating to either the receptionist position (what programs or software do you know? Can you handle a multi-line phone? Do you know how to work an intercom?) nor did they ask me if I had ever HAD a dog in my life, much less worked with them in any professional or career capacity.
