During my 6 years working for co-op I developed my communication skills whilst working with colleagues and talking to customers. The job involved assisting customers with any queries they may have, maintaining stock levels and ensuring that the store was presentable at all times. After 4 years I was given a supervisor role which included key holder responsibilities such as opening/closing the store and managing staff to make sure we all worked effectively to achieve tasks and overcome problems.

While working at GAME I learnt valuable skills on how to approach, and engage, with a customer. In my role as a sales assistant I had to achieve daily sales targets. I learnt how to inform the consumer about products and how to sell products to them effectively and in a friendly manor. Punctuality was important because I had to use public transport but quickly became fluent in its use.
