Upon taking over the Dairy Manager position, I've driven sales to upwards of $1,000 over my weekly projections week over week, as well as driven positive interaction counts up by almost 30%. By streamlining the freight working system in the back, I've been able to decrease work times despite larger loads to accommodate an increase in product. Within my first 6 months of being with the company, I have been promoted to Grocery Manager.

Pro Services manager is in charge of commercial sales to large clients, with meticulous attention to detail to ensure accuracy. I also manage the team to ensure they are following tasks given, as well as providing the quality necessary for the department. I help assist other departments as needed, and have customer interaction almost constantly. I was later moved to the Plumbing Department to help drive sales and lower theft related shrink. In the course of 6 months, I was able to stop shrink dead in its tracks, drive sales upwards of 10%, and bring in new systems to help keep the trend going. I later did the same when moved to Tools and Hardware where I stopped the shrink and lowered it by 68% from the previous year while driving sales into the green before I left.

As a retail associate, I aim to hit metrics for my store. I help assist with the purchase of phones, plans, accessories, and also protection for their devices. I handle opening and closing duties.

My job is to deliver products (uniforms, linens, mats, chemicals, etc.) to various customers and locations. I'm the direct communication for customers and their needs, and work with them to facilitate any needs they have.

I was hired straight into the Assistant Store Manager position from my previous employer. As the assistant, my jobs are very detail oriented to ensure the smallest detail isn't missed, be it in shipping or printing. I direct most training, and ensure that everyone meets and exceeds the standards here at FedEx Office. I managed 3 stores before I left (Shoreline, Kirkland, and Northgate) due to leadership leaving and managed those stores teams, production, schedules, as well as any emergencies that arose.

• I was with Menard's for 2 years. In the first 2 months, I had gone from part-time to full time. Then, 4 months later, I was given the opportunity to move from that store, Sedalia MO, to open the new store down here as a manager. Before moving, I had managed to sell 6 whole home package deals, and coordinate with the purchaser and the contractors to ensure a smooth process and build. In Springfield, I had built many relationships with my guests, some to the point that they refuse to do business with anyone but me. My jobs included training my team to be more efficient, to think and see the way I do, and to show them the tools they need to handle large sales from start to finish. I also handle high dollar sales, most being around $20,000, if not more.

• Originally, I was supposed to be the department manager for the meat shop. However, I was removed from that due to not being a certified meat cutter, and just having on the job training. I still did meat cutting, and several other things. Such as sales, both large and small quantity, quality control, inventory, cleaning and organizing, and customer service.
