Working with Sports Authority required a mix of customer service, salesmanship and technical skills. I served as a Technical Sales Associate, this meant I had to split my team between working the sales floor and working in the Tech shop. While on the sales floor I had metrics to meet and customer service to provide to our guests, the tech shop required working skills with bikes, skis, snowboards, and various other tasks.

During my time with QFC, I worked between the customer service desk and helping out at the register. Both of these positions involved working with customers all day and with many different concerns. With the customer service desk I had multiple responsibilities working with money grams, lottery tickets, tobacco products and returns. Along with that I needed to be able to provide answers to any questions that Customers had. While working behind the cash register I made sure to get customers out as quickly as possible while including a fun shopping experience.
