Make Your Seasonal Position Permanent
Nov 28th
During this busy time of year retail shops are searching for temporary associates to help with the heaps of shoppers!
The trouble is, unless you work part time and need to make some extra cash, you’re probably searching for a permanent role and don’t want to waste time in a temporary position this season.
If you’re interested in the retail Company and want to get a foot in the door, now is your chance.
Before:
- Ask if there is potential to go permanent at the end of the season if you go above and beyond
- Ask what the percentage of seasonal employees that have gone permanent in the past, either right after their assignment or in the future
- Make sure the hiring manager knows how interested you are in the role and the company
During:
- Prove yourself every chance you get
- Be a team leader
- If someone calls out offer to fill in for them
- Volunteer for every project
After:
- If you aren’t offered a permanent spot, make sure you leave on good terms with contact information
- Stay in touch with the hiring manager
- Make sure to touch base with the manager especially when you read current events on the company
If you’re not working and you have an opportunity to work this season, take it! You never know where it will lead.

Black Friday Bonanza – Sales Associate Edition
Nov 22nd
How do you shop for the holidays? Do you take advantage of Cyber Monday sales and avoid Black Friday all together? Have you heard about Small Business Saturday? Do you shop during all these manic days? Forget shopping. Have you ever worked retail on Black Friday?
I have worked retail in the Apple Store on Black Friday. With iPods and PowerBooks flying overhead I learned how to keep my composure, smile, and sell, sell, sell.
We have a large amount of sales, stock, and cashier associates going in to man the floors of various luxury retail clients this weekend. We want to provide top ten survival methods for working retail this holiday season.
- Get at least 8-9 hours of sleep the night before your shift
- Pack sustenance and drink anything caffeinated. Here are some great recipes for your leftover turkey!
- Wear the most comfortable work appropriate shoes possible
- Make sure you dress with the option to delayer/layer up.
- Pace yourself. If you see a lot of customers who are unattended see what they’re needs are. There is a chance they’re all looking for the same thing. IE. All three women would like to try on a pair of shoes. Get all three sizes and styles and only make one run to stock instead of three!
- Plan ahead for transportation delays. Remember everyone will be traveling. Your “on-time” arrival is crucial to making this day a success.
- Buddy Moments – Have a friend at work? If you’re having a stressful moment or need an ear to vent to – you know you have a friend/buddy to help blow off steam. Better them than a customer.
- Choose an upbeat, inspirational, fun playlist for the day/weekend. It will help keep the pace up!
- Set the tone for a happy and positive environment. There will be a lot of stressed out shoppers looking for a great deal and hot item. Stay positive and aim to please. Smiles are contagious.
- If you’re the manager in charge encourage your staff to produce amazing results. Reward with lottery tickets, kitschy gifts, or candy!
We want to wish all of our candidates the best of luck this holiday season! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
