Murphy USA’s Post

A day in the life of Retail. When I was in corporate and had a job interview, I always got the same question about my resume: “You managed Eddiebauer stores? What was that like?” People are fascinated if you have management experience at a storied and cherished brand. Working at Brooks Brothers as an Assistant Store Manager is no different. Actually, running a store is a lot like running a business. Because it IS a business that someone has entrusted to you to run. Retail is a great training/proving ground for building a knowledge and experience base in sales, project management, relationship building, hiring, human resources, merchandising, inventory control…the list is endless. What I love best about running a store, is the opportunity to leave my footprint on a business with my creativity and sales performance. Last week I was the top seller in our location and I’m one of a group of formidable sales people. Check back here for fun retail stories and sales hacks! #retailtherapy #retailsales #salesexperience

I wish sometimes people could see a little bit further when they read a CV with store manager experience. It’s NOT ONLY “store manager”, it’s way more then that. It should not be this difficult to find a job outside retail after spending all of this years multitasking and learning from basically every department, plus doing tasks that are not even in the description of a Store Manager position. I really feel a lot of job positions could benefit from the experience of a Store Manager. I’m still ready to take on new challenges outside the usual retail scene. #storemanager #opentowork #inbetweenjobs #newchallenge

Genuinely curious. I can understand why not to put someone's full address on a resume (safety/privacy reasons?). What I don't understand is why some people don't even include city and state (e.g. Middletown, New Jersey) on their resume? If you're applying for a merchandising position that requires some days on site, the recruiter will be looking for where you live. By not including that, they will need to reach out and ask you, or skip the extra step and pass onto other resumes that provided the information upfront. What are some reasons you think people don't include city and state when applying for on site merchandising positions? #recruiting #recruiter #merchandising #productdevelopment #sales #design #resumereview #artisan34 #newjersey #middletown #hiring #hiringnj

In recruitment, some industries don’t have the luxury of hiring one or two people to fill vacant roles. They need dozens of candidates to fill dozens of roles. They need to conduct mass recruitment. Here are 4 main reasons why do companies mass hire? 1- Business Needs Put simply, one of the top reasons companies turn to mass hiring is because their business needs demand it. For example, if you’re launching a new branch for a restaurant, you need to hire several waiters and busboys. That’s in addition to other roles like a restaurant manager or supervisor, cashier, and others. 2- Filling Vacancies Faster As mentioned, business needs will dictate whether a company needs to mass hire candidates or not. Naturally, with mass recruitment, the hiring process is different. It’s faster and accordingly means filling vacancies faster. 3- Cost Efficient Mass recruitment saves a company a lot of money when recruiting candidates. 4- Better Employer Branding Companies that turn to mass recruitment show the community they’re growing and want to fill more jobs and help more people rise in their careers.
