- Team manager , Salesman, Visual merchandiser

• Top sales person (BRANDS) in 2017 • From being a normal sales person to someone who does the banking and responsible for receiving as well as counting stock (trustworthy) and also motivate my subordinate. • I learnt how to listen attentive, critical and appreciative that really improved my customer service and how to handle most difficult customers, that resulted where I had customers who appreciated my service in such a way that they even ask for me when they came to the store, but then I always try convincing them to see the fact that it not just me but it’s the company’s service, so that they stay loyal even on my absence.

Pros: I can run a store / manage a store
Cons: I sometimes work 12 hours

Constant promotions

Is a great company to start a career with constant promotions, but the salary varies from different branches, I'd tie in a bigger branch salary might be R4900 and from small branch might be R4300, the only challenge is when one works in a branch situated in a mall as most malls close even around 10pm, the only issue is that small branches don't get the same treatment at bigger branches like product and other systems are not in placed.

Pros: Constant promotions
Cons: Management from bigger stores look down at other small stores

Excellent learning curve

I work as a general worker. Eveyday i have a duty, like when my mentor said i have to be in a till, i have to be in and dealing with all the job under the cash desk. Since i am a trainee manager i do everything inside the store. We have a good communication inside as a staff, we all respect each other. but there are those challenges we face. Like to deal with the customer issues. But i love and enjoy my job

Pros: This is a great opportunity for me as a retail student, as i have mentioned on my CV. I would like to do anything in the industr, and i am ready to face each and every problem and solve it. I promise i will be a useful material to the industry.
Cons: 8 hours a day

Great experience

My workplace is a very healthy environment, my colleagues and I are like family. We have a strong bond and that makes us a strong team. When one is winning, we all are. I have learnt a lot of things including how to escalate matters that I can't solve. I enjoy listening to customer's quiries and helping them. For example, most of the time, they come looking for something that they can use as proof of residence then I will call the head office and ask for their accounts statements then print them out and give to the customers. I have a good relationship with our customers and that contributes a lot to our turnover. The most challenging part is when I have to deal with rude customers, they will insult me and call me names but I have to keep quiet and apologize for whatever even when they are wrong.

Pros: Promotion
Cons: Standing up the whole day
