IELTS Speaking Part 3 : Follow up Questions

Here some examples of follow up questions that you may asked during your speaking part 3 by examiner related to cue card “describe a good service you received”.

1. What do you think of the relationship between companies and consumers?
I think both companies and customers depend upon each other. Without sales, a company cannot succeed and grow, and without good companies, people cannot get good quality products and services. Thus, it is not surprising that the leading companies like Apple and Amazon also have the best customer service.

2. As a customer, what kinds of services would you expect to receive from a company?
I think companies should fulfil their promises most of all. For example, if companies make promises like one-day installation, the promised work should be done within one day. In addition, if the product provided doesn’t keep up to the standards promised, the company should apologise and reimburse the customers.

3. What kind of jobs involve coping with the public?
I think most service and sales jobs involve coping with the public. Services can be anything like car repair, product installations, healthcare services, teaching, etc. Similarly, although online shopping has reduced interaction, sales to a large extent still entail dealing with the public.

4. Why should companies react quickly when customers have difficulties?
I think it is important to proactively deal with customer’s complaints and difficulties because it can harm the brand reputation of the company, and in today’s competitive era, brand image is paramount to success. In fact, it is also one of the major reasons why companies today are taking on social responsibilities.
