Im a current ***. Manager at a retail store, how can I get a good office job with that experience?

  • I have three years of retail sales experience, now looking for a change of jobs. Looking forward to work in an office.

  • Answer:

    Separate the skills you acquired while doing this job. If you helped with ordering or inventory, any kind of paperwork, phone skills, etc. List these separately on your resume each skill you list you will have 3 years exp.

Try going to a temp agency and asking them if they have any office jobs to offer. If you only have a hs diploma, it may be more difficult to find a good office job. With a hs diploma and your background you may be able to find telemarketing jobs, secretarial jobs, front desk clerk, accounts payable/receivable, inventory, answering phone calls, etc...

3. Stress that you have good customer service experience, and can work well in a team and get on well with lots of different people.

you can't......BUT.... you can start at a company with a plan to go to management in the future. but you will have to start at entry level and learn those things before you go up. or....start working entry level part-time and take night-time classes for MBA. by the time you get the degree you have experience too. it's perfect.
