Good working environment
I'm happy with Woolworths but now I need something new that will challenge me and willing to learn new things and skills. I'm very loyal person and dedicated person. I'm a receiving clerk at detail check department, check if the stock has discrepancies or not while we receiving local supplies. I've learned that communication and commitment is much important when you're dealing with stock from suppliers.
Pros: Trainings
Cons: Less promotion

Great place to for learning
I get to interact with customers on a daily basis and help them with problems they come up against in the store such as giving them knowledge about certain products they do not understand.everyday I put stock an the shelf In a way that will attract customers and increase sales.we also insure that expired items are removed from the shelf since we believe in providing the best service to our customers.working as a team helps us to work more efficiently,our team leaders give us a lot of information we need and I have learnt a lot from them such as how to motivate your team to do the best they can to work hard and stir them into the right direction.the thing I enjoy most is interacting with customers and helping them resolve their problems. The most challenging part is working with cold chain products because you have to ensure that they stay in a constant temperature level as required by the store at all times.
Pros: great place for growth
Cons: long working hours
