Selling Manager

October 2008 • Austin, TX

What I liked

I love what I do for H-E-B! I coordinate selling events that take place in the store utilizing the Marketing team's vision and the promotional division's talent. By coordinating with department managers and promotional staff, I write schedules, order product and make preparations for selling events that take place daily in the store.

What I wish was different

I sometimes wish that I had a little more decision making when it comes to the items to be promoted, instead, I have to follow the marketing team's guidance with little to no input on the products. This impacts my customers in my store as the demographics of my clients is not necessarily the target audience of the marketing team, and sales are often left on the table at my location.

Advice

Be prepared to give your all, and invest in good quality footwear! I average 35 miles per work week in steps, and have learned the value of proper shoes. While this position requires a great deal of strategic thinking, there is a lot of running around that takes place.

Checker

May 2020 • Tomball, TX

What I liked

How friendly the working environment was. Management was terrific and were very helpful.

What I wish was different

Maybe that management would step in and help the employees more when customers were sometimes wrong and would be very angry at the employee. It would be nice if H-E-B could stand up for its employees more.

Advice

That you try hard and really try to do your best. They recognize good work and it will make you feel good, knowing that you're trying hard and learning.

Store Operations Management Intern

June - July 2020 • San Antonio, TX

What I liked

I loved the enthusiasm all the top leaders had when addressing the interns. Their efforts to make the best of the pandemic situation and still provide an internship opportunity showed the company's values. It was a very well thought out program with several interactive activities and opportunities to network.

What I wish was different

Of course, this is out of their control, but to have had more chances to interact with other interns in person, even if that meant being socially distanced.

Advice

Make the most out of this experience by expanding your network!
