Sales Assistant Review

I worked on the till, communicated and helped customers, tidied up the shop, helped with donation deliveries and sorted out stock. I also learnt about the rules what to do and not to do in the shop, health and safety etc. I also helped priced and sort out items around the shop.

I've learnt to be more confident and to confront / socialise with customers who need my help, and to also offer help. I've learnt to be a lot more organised, and gained retail experience.

I enjoyed it a lot. I was also working with my school friend, which made me feel a bit better as I knew someone. But I also made new friends, and I enjoyed learning new experiences and skills.

I've done a lot for cancer research with donations, race for life etc, and it was an absolute pleasure to be able to work in the cancer research criteria. They're so supportive and friendly.

It was quite organised. I had a set time and days for when I had to be in and I'd sign the register for when I arrived and when I left.

I didn't get a lot of training, but it was enough to manage for the amount of time I was there for. For example with the till work, I got trained for about an hour and I felt I needed more time to be trained to feel confident with working on the till.

She was so lovely and friendly, always willing to help and support when needed.

It was voulentary and work experience, therefore I didn't get paid.

Well I'm now at university and I still support cancer researching as I do race for life when I can.

Yes

It's a great charity and you can learn more than you think!

There's no need to be nervous! The staff are so friendly. It's such a supportive and great charity, achieving great things and you'll learn more than you expect.
