Retail Experience

Summer: (2014) (2015)

Company: TJX Marshalls (Greentree, Pa)

Position: Sales Associate, Cashier

Job description: I previously worked at Marshalls in Retail. This job strengthened my skills in communication, organization, design, and my comprehension of finances. My ability to communicate with customers improved immensely through in-person, one-on- one assistance and attending to customer needs over the phone. This position requires me to provide shoppers with a visual feature of must-have products. In doing so, I am able to apply my design and organizational skills to publicize several, eye-catching racks while following the limitations of name brand, price range, and placement of the racks throughout the store. I worked well with fellow coworkers in completing this task. My ability to take a design concept into a final marketing product is a skill that I could offer any of my future employers.

What I have gained from this experience:

  • Customer Service
  • Working under pressure
  • Commercial Awareness
  • Time management
  • Culture awareness
  • Intuition
