Correct Answer
B. I will extend my evening out-time by half an hour in order to achieve my targets.Explanation

Since the shift started late due to traffic, it is not possible to wrap up calls in shorter duration or reduce wrap-up time by doing tagging while talking to the customer. Taking calls at the usual pace and only doing tagging for critical calls may not be enough to reach the daily target of 60 calls. Therefore, extending the out-time by half an hour allows for more time to make the necessary number of calls and meet the target.Rate this question:

It is compulsory for a customer care executive to resolve at least 80% of calls by himself, without referring them to his seniors. If a customer care executive gets a total of 90 calls, what is the maximum number of calls that he can refer to his seniors?
- A.
10
- B.
18
- C.
20
- D.
28
Correct Answer
B. 18Explanation
To find the maximum number of calls that the customer care executive can refer to his seniors, we first need to calculate 80% of the total calls, which represents the calls he should resolve by himself.
80% of 90 calls = (80/100) * 90 = 0.8 * 90 = 72 calls.
This means that the executive should resolve 72 calls by himself. Therefore, the maximum number of calls he can refer to his seniors is the difference between the total calls and the calls he should resolve by himself:
Total calls - Calls resolved by himself = Maximum calls referred to seniors 90 calls - 72 calls = 18 calls.
So, the maximum number of calls that he can refer to his seniors is 18.
The correct answer is: 18.Rate this question:
