Talbots

Sales Associate

April 2018 • Baltimore, MD

What I liked

I get to meet a large variety of people and help them find an outfit that's perfect for them.

What I wish was different

I wish for summer that I could go full time but because I can only be part-time during the semester I remain part time during the school breaks.

Advice

Sometimes customers get upset and take it out on employees, you just have to let it roll off you and if you need to journal about it or vent to a friend later.

Cashier

November 2018 - July 2019 • Waterloo, NY

What I liked

A comfortable professional environment that was inviting and warm. Always very friendly coworkers and nice customers. The work itself was pretty typical of entry-level retail, but I enjoy how hands-on and customer service oriented this company is.

What I wish was different

If the store was a bit busier then it would have made shifts pass a little more quickly.

Advice

Talk to coworkers and customers! It makes time fly by and the customers at this location love to chat about the merchandise.

Sales Associate

June 2018 • Columbus, OH

What I liked

Working in a team of such diverse personalities and backgrounds

What I wish was different

That I would have stayed longer if I could!

Advice

Don’t be afraid to be an extrovert! As someone who can be super shy it was great to just be myself and be involved in the store
