When customers call the number, for DMV , what they have to listen to first , is really irrelevant…read more, to their needs. The time spent listening to the opening part, of the automated recording, about the times/ hours and what days of the week, we tend to forget why we called in Then we have the part about knowing the person's four digit extension and to enter it, if we know it. Who knows anybody's four- digit extension these days?? DMV doesn't even sign their correspondence, they send out. No name or department mentioned I ran a call center and I know from experience, customers don't have time to wait on hold. When you call a company, the first point of contact, if there is one, usually gets you to the right department, first and foremost. If a customer is put on hold, that's the time all the information about opening hours, directions, etc , could be included. Some companies prefer "hold" music, at this time. I always thought it's the perfect time for all the company information to be included.

The staff were kind, assistive, professional, funny, and accommodating. I had to let my lady know that I had a pleasant experience. Her booth neighbor said, 'Her name is Mimi". Which later I find out, was Adrienne (? Spl). They were jokers; and their jokes were light hearted. The staff answered my questions welcomingly and succinctly. I appreciate that I wasn't belittled nor treated condescendingly. My past DMV experience included staff who were on power trips and untouchable demeanor. One staff in Wayne even questioned my presence as a mother of a minor. There was an instance that a lady yelled out, "No pictures". Everyone around me looked puzzled. I looked at who yelled and looked at me. She yelled again, "No pictures." I had to reply back that it wasn't me. "Well someone was taking pictures." I have no reason to take pictures. I was busy dreading the 2hr drive back home. But I would still give Salem DMV 5 Stars!!! I will have no hesitation to come back here if needed.
