Everybody here mentions the way you should talk „be calm build a rapport“ bla bla. Which is absolutely of second importance. The most important things are: - ASK everything, write it down and take screenshots of it if possible. - Don‘t promise solutions. If you work in ServiceDesk, there‘s a chance you‘ll have to delegate the ticket to 2nd Level Support. - Classify each case properly, with priority and impact. - When you document tickets to be delegated to 2nd Level Support, imagine that you have to explain the case to a toddler, and document it that way. Keep it short and simple, with all the available informatiom and screenshots. - Follow up on the solutions of the tickets which you delegate to the 2nd Level Support. This way you can learn and also work there later. This is from my experience in 1st Level Support (or ServiceDesk), 2nd lvl Support and further down the career path. *excuse my English

Yep. I agree. I'm an IT tech at a school district. During distance learning, we ran an impromptu help desk. It was frustrating at times. I don't mind helping people out, but man it gets frustrating at times. We had irate parents calling in because their kid couldn't login to the class meeting or their student's Chromebook would freeze or not work. It was difficult to determine what the problem was over the phone most of the time. Sometimes, there was nothing wrong with the Chromebook and the kid would intentionally tell their parents it wasn't working so that they could get out of class. Or at times, the problem ended up being with the student's internet connection and no matter how tactfully or diplomatic you were about it, they wouldn't accept the answer and would get even more annoyed because they thought I was trying to not help them.

I work on a corporate help desk, I can say honestly that this isn't accurate at all. The first thing that happens when anyone calls is that they immediately immediately say that you are at fault, and then they fail to describe the issue accurately. They say that you need to remote into their computer to do their job for them, and after you've remoted into their computer you find that the issue is hardware-related or something Nother support team handles so instead of calling the proper people, they called tech support because management thinks that we should handle everything so they just call us help desk rather than Information Technology escalation or something that more accurately depicts the job. I've had people call us about payroll issues, about HR issues, about legal issues, and about issues that don't even pertain to our company. Here's the reality, help desk sucks, users are morons. The only way to survive in help desk is to basically work your way out of help desk.

What are your current IT/computer skills? In general, most help desk-level jobs don't really require that much experience, but it does greatly help to have good customer service skills, working knowledge of computers at a general level (like knowing your way around a PC; how to navigate file explorer, etc) If you don't have much experience with computers, you may want to start with the basics. Like learn what a motherboard is, what a CPU is, etc and what all of the parts inside of a computer are and what they do; where the common settings are in a PC (like Control Panel, File Explorer, etc). You don't have to be an expert, but it does help to have the basics. Try looking at your local school districts. That can often be a pretty good way to get started in the IT field.

@@aliceryhe5051 Look at your resume and make sure it is good. Have someone else look over it for suggestions on things you can improve. It maybe simple things like formatting, maybe adding or removing a couple things here and there. See if you can attend a local career center and see if they offer services like looking over your resume or even mock interviews. That can greatly help you improve yourself and your resume. For the interview part, you know yourself better than anyone here (I would hope). Figure out what part(s) of the interview you struggle with and use that as a starting point in your practice. I understand interviews can be very nerve wracking. I was pretty nervous when I interviewed at my local school district for an IT tech job mainly because it was a 4 person panel: IT director and 3 other IT specialists. I know this all easier said than done, but if you want to succeed, you need to put in the effort to identify your short comings and making an effort to improve on that. I'm not trying to make you feel bad. I was in a similar position. I know the struggle. Just out of curiosity, you say you have master's degree in IT. Can you expand on that?

If people are yelling at you, then maybe that's in indication you aren't good at what you do. There should NEVER be scenario where someone can feel its appropriate to yell at the IT rep. If this happens, ask yourself what you DIDNT do in the first place that could of prevented this type of response. When they yell at you, that's on you! Don't blame the caller for your lack of preparation and maintenance. I've worked in IT for nearly 20 years in two different industries and have served dozens of individual clients through my business and this has happened only ONCE --- Because a good IT guy is not only efficient and effective, but compassionate, considerate, and ALWAYS goes above and beyond to ensure the best experience, every day, every time! If you haven't built up enough credit with your "customers/clients" with GOOD things, than when things go bad, they don't give you ANY grace. So again, ask yourself, "What could I have done to prevent this was happening, and what steps can I take to prevent this from ever happening again?" Then replicate that throughout your department through training, communication, and a steadfast culture of EXCELLENT customer service.

Apparently you've never worked in healthcare or education where this happens often enough it was worth mentioning. If you've experienced this once in 20 years you're lucky.

@@Itcareerquestions Healthcare no, and I can see how that would be more critical; but education is more than half that time. I'm not trying to knock you, you have some great videos and content; but i have seen a significant difference between IT groups that know what they are doing, versus those that just say they do. If you set up your environment properly, you can eliminate a very high percentage of those calls. As new issues comes up, you make adjustments to increase that percentage and again, reduce the overall issues. As time goes on, your phone should be ringing less and less. Good IT work is all about reducing friction and encouraging clean productivity. This requires a tremendously amount of preparation throughout your employment, but is the most satisfying way to work because you eliminate the bad experiences to a minimal level.

Lmao, yea okay buddy. Try working for healthcare IT help desk, you are guaranteed to have someone yell at you for no apparent reason just because they are already in a bad mood and they want to take it out on you. Hospitals is a stressful environment to be in and the staff have already stressful jobs so they’ll pour all their emotions onto you when they’re having technical difficulties. So Is NOT because you suck at your IT help desk whenever someone yells at you, a lot of the times is because some people are just in stressful situations and they take it out on you for no fault of your own. That was an ignorant statement from you.

@@Jay482 20 years of ignorance, I guess. And I've worked in the Health industry, Transportation, and Education. They are all the same, and they all expect the same. Keep making excuses for your experience and look at yourself in the mirror; ask the hard questions.
