Job Description
We are seeking a UPS Store Associate to join our great team! We get great reviews from our customers. They consistently compliment us on how friendly and helpful we are...and how efficiently we get things done.
This is a Full-Time position for someone with some schedule flexibility. We need someone who can work a variety of shifts. We are open Monday through Friday from 8:00 Am to 7:00 PM. We are open on Saturdays and Sundays from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. Your actual shifts may vary according to staffing needs.
We have a professional development track and provide bonuses and commissions that will bring you to the equivalent of $16/hr or more.
(We have a shift differential on weekends that makes this attractive).
If you are legal to work in the USA, have a pleasant outlook on life, can lift and carry up to 35 lbs many times a day, can spend a lot of time standing and walking, and can get to work on time every day, are coachable and teachable, then you are a great candidate.
If you meet these basic requirements and can answer yes to all the pre-qualification questions in Zip Recruiter, you are eligible for hire, assuming your phone interview and your in-person interview go well.
We are a scent-free workplace. Be aware that we do not wear perfumes or fragrances. We do not use scented cleaners or air fresheners. This is because some of our customers or coworkers may have allergies or sensitivities to things they can smell.
Here are the steps to getting hired:
1. Complete the applications in Zip Recruiter. If you answer yes to all the qualifying questions, you will be contacted and asked to call the store owner by phone.
2. Call the store owner by phone and have a conversation. If this goes well, you'll be asked to go to the store and meet with the store manager.
3. Go to the store and talk with the store manager. Get a feel for the place. Talk about how you'd fit into our excellent team. If this goes well, you'll be invited to start work with us.
4. Start work. You'll receive on-the-job training for a few days while you decide if this is right for you, and while we see how well you fit the job and fit the vibe of the business. If this goes well, you will work with us for a few weeks of a trial period before being put on the team.

We offer a company-matched Simple IRA retirement plan and an AFLAC accident insurance policy.
We do not offer health insurance since we are an independently owned franchise and group insurance is extremely expensive. We have found that obtaining private healthcare insurance through the Healthcare.gov marketplace is a bargain and offers good coverage for employees.
Employees enjoy eight paid holidays and three paid health and wellness days each year. Unpaid time-off accrual is generous.
