| Rita is considering retail sales as an immediate job goal. Her research shows that retail employers require good customer service skills. Customer service is not a skill that she identified. Her past employment as an Inventory Clerk in a warehouse required little customer contact. Yet, in her job she coordinated the distribution of inventory to several departments and worked very closely with staff. This activity, along with her volunteer experience as a School Fund Raiser, demonstrates excellent customer service skills. |
