✔✔What is DNS and what port does it operate on? - ✔✔DNS (Domain Name System)

IP addresses (like 192.0.2.1) so devices can communicate over the internet. DNS
operates primarily on port 53, using either UDP (User Datagram Protocol) for normal
queries or TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) for larger data transfers, like zone
transfers.

in IT because it helps users solve their problems quickly. Good customer service makes
users happy and keeps technology running smoothly.

need a help desk because it provides quick support when users have IT problems. A
help desk keeps operations running smoothly and reduces downtime.

got it. It was stressful, but I learned how important patience and clear communication
are.
✔✔How do you deal with criticism? - ✔✔I try to see criticism as a chance to improve. I

and growing.

apologized and tried to help. I stayed polite and listened carefully, letting them explain

✔✔How do you organize your work schedule? - ✔✔I like to stay organized by making a
to-do list at the start of each day. I focus on the most important tasks first and set small

✔✔How do you respond if you're unsure of the answer? - ✔✔If I'm unsure of the
answer, I stay honest and say that I'm not completely sure, but I'll find out. I either check
with a supervisor, look it up in our system, or ask someone who knows. I make sure to
get back to the customer with the right information as soon as possible. That way, they
still feel supported and taken care of.

situation.

split the work and communicate better. It taught me the value of patience and
teamwork, even when people don't always see eye to eye.
