What I liked
What I liked about this retail job was the chance to be creative. People would come in asking for your opinion on items and/or put together an outfit for them.
What I wish was different
I wish I had started earlier and maybe tried a different store. Not like replace the store I worked for but in addition I would of also liked to work at other retail shops in the mall.
Advice
I liked the chance to be able to get some experience in retail. I am a marketing major and being able to have this experience under my belt can open up opportunities to different fields I could potentially be interested in. Dont be afraid to try new things. What you put in a job is what you get out of it!
