Write the first reply to this customer and explain your next steps.
You support business customers of an electronic invoicing system. At 10 a.m., the finance manager of a distributor writes: "The system has been down since 7 a.m. I have 40 invoices to issue, trucks waiting, and I will cancel the contract if this is not solved today." Engineering has already confirmed an outage affecting some customers and has no estimate yet. Write the message you would send, then describe what you would do over the next hours, including logging, escalation and follow-up.

How this template was made, and what you can check
Are these the real questions?
Yes. The questions on this page are the questions a candidate gets. They are not samples written for the site: they come from the template itself, word for word.
Why are some questions missing from this page?
Any question with a recorded answer key is left out, so that reading this page cannot help anyone pass. The count of what is missing is shown; the questions themselves appear once you copy the template.
Which language does the candidate see?
Every template exists in English and Portuguese. The candidate answers in theirs and you read in yours.
Will this template work on my plan?
Question types are checked against your plan by the database itself, so a template never promises a type your plan cannot run. Building assessments and collecting answers is free; automatic scoring starts on the Starter plan.
Can I change the questions?
Once you copy it, the template is yours: change the wording, drop a question, add your own. None of this is fixed.
How fast can I send it?
Create a free account, copy the template and share the link. The candidate opens it in the browser, with nothing to install.
Use this template on your next opening
Copy the template, change what you want, send a link. Assessly marks each answer, scores it and explains the score.
