I'm applying for Starbucks, and while I know they probably won't hire me yet (I'm 16 with no other past jobs, this would be my first one) I need to try. Its pretty much the last place I'm turning in my resume...
But there's this one question that I don't know how to answer correctly. My mother, a former McDonalds boss, shot down all of my answers. And well, here's the question:
"Describe a situation where you have provided excellent customer service in your most recent position. Why was this effective?"

If you havent had any other working ecperience you could either leave it blank, or maybe write about a past task in which you proided excellent service, maybe babysitting or volunteer work.
