About This Role

Highlight any experience with ticketing systems (Zendesk, Freshdesk, etc.) and Excel reporting—mention specific formulas or dashboards you've built.

Since the role is seasonal, emphasize your flexibility and ability to ramp up quickly—mention any past seasonal or project-based work.

5

Research EnergyHub's programs (e.g., Bring Your Own Thermostat) and mention one in your application to show genuine interest.

💬 Prepare for These Interview Topics

Based on this role, you may be asked about:

1 Tell me about a time you handled a difficult customer via email. How did you de-escalate and resolve the issue?
2 How do you prioritize tasks when you have multiple open tickets and a new urgent issue comes in?
3 Describe your experience with Excel for reporting. Can you walk me through how you'd create a weekly support activity report?
4 How would you identify a systemic issue from recurring support tickets, and what steps would you take to communicate it to the team?
5 Why are you interested in working in clean energy, and what do you know about EnergyHub's programs?

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Don't submit a generic cover letter—failing to mention clean energy or EnergyHub specifically makes you look uninterested.
  • Don't overlook the 'seasonal' aspect; if you're not available for the full season or can't handle temporary work, be upfront.
  • Don't exaggerate Excel skills—be ready to demonstrate them in an interview or test if asked.
