As a Seasonal Sales Advisor at Hennes & Mauritz, I was able to work in a team with young people like myself to create a more cohesive and functional store environment. Working in the two-story H&M located in the middle of an outdoor shopping mall, I was constantly busy helping customers regarding outfit recommendations, location of an item or returning/exchanging unsatisfactory clothes. One of my favorite aspects of working at H&M was the team-building environment. All of us were able to learn and perfect our leadership skills, upfront communication and adaptability to solve problems. These traits strengthened our relationships with one another.

K&G was my first job and one that required me to hone my interpersonal skills. Although I was restricted to the register for most of my shifts, the company emphasized customer service and retention as its main goal. I was trained to make the customer feel at ease and comfortable in the store so they would be prompted to come in again. Along with being a great conversationalist, I often had to take measurements and advise buyers on what size suit jackets or dress pants to purchase. This brought me closer to our customers and allowed me to see that good customer-employee relations are immensely vital to a company.
