What does Customer Service SJT include?

Why does it matter?
Frontline service failures are expensive in ways that don't always show up on a P&L immediately โ churned customers, negative reviews, and escalations that consume manager time. SJTs predict practical service judgement better than personality traits alone, catching a specific failure mode interviews miss.
