    • Home Retail Group PLC

      Nov 2011 - Dec 2011
      Customer Advisor

      I was employed as a customer advisor temporarily over the busy Christmas period for two consecutive years (2010 and 2011). During the first year I worked on the Collection Point desk which involved providing the customers with the items they had purchased. I had to ensure that customers were receiving their good within the given time limit and this involved communicating with the stock room upstairs. During the second year I was trained to work operate the tills and work on the Jewellery Counter. When selling jewellery and watches I had to provide a more personal service for which I communicated with the customer to discover exactly what they were looking for and their budget. As I was employed during the months running up to Christmas, I was often asked to assist with picking gifts for the customer, listening to their exact requirements. In addition, I was required to handle high value goods and was responsible for the keys to the jewellery storage room. Show less
