QFC, 6411 SE Milwaukie Ave. Portland, Oregon 97202 503-***-**** — Customer Service and Produce Clerk
MAY 2016 - JULY 2016
Customer service came first at QFC. The different departments worked together as a team and got the products on the floor and kept it clean and organized. I enjoyed lifting heavy (up to 75 lbs) boxes of produce, organizing the cooler and keeping the back room clean. I frequently broke down, organized and dated the shipments on my own. I managed my time effectively and kept up on trim, rotation, table and wet rack levels and presentation. I assisted in the floral department and bagging at check-stands when needed but the produce department was my passion.
Bombers Burrito Bar, 447 State St. Schenectady, NY 12305 518-***-**** — Burrito Artist and Front End Support
JANUARY 2015 - NOVEMBER 2015
Fast paced and upbeat! I established and upheld a positive work environment. I answered the phone, organized pick up orders and deliveries (expo) in a timely fashion. My customer service was great, especially for a busy night downtown, as I fluently switched between expo and register when necessary for the team. I rolled impeccable 1 lb. burritos and assembled exceptional tacos and salads. I kept the kitchen clean and well stocked. I relocated to Oregon so I left this job and my hometown behind!
