"Always putting the patients and our customers first."

Fahriye about her position at Medtronic

I work as a Customer Service Representative where I support the processes from the moment a customer’s order comes in, until the moment the products or therapies are deliverer. I am responsible for several countries and therefore work closely with local distributors, sales offices and various departments within Medtronic.

My daily work can be summarized as monitoring and managing the information flow to provide a better customer experience by getting to know the customer and exceed their expectations.
