Work Experience
Lead Sales Associate and assistant store manager
Dollar general-Summersville, WV
October 2008 to July 2010
While a standard cashier primarily runs the register and handles customer transactions, my duties went beyond that. Here’s a breakdown of what I did:
• Ran the cash register: This is a core part of the cashier role, handling purchases and providing customer service.
• Counted the money: This responsibility goes beyond just making change. Counting money at the end of a shift, handling bank deposits, and ensuring the register is balanced are often duties assigned to a lead or keyholder.
• Made sure the place was clean and safe: In addition to general cleaning, ensuring the environment is
"safe" could include tasks like monitoring the store, helping with loss prevention, and making sure aisles are clear—duties that often fall on a person in a leadership position.
• Putting up merchandise: This is part of the general sales associate role, but it's essential to keeping the store clean, organized, and properly stocked.
My responsibilities suggest you had a leadership role with more accountability than a typical cashier. Highly motivated and adaptable shift manager
