Sales Associate/Retail Job Description

A long and satisfying career in the retail sector usually starts small. You may be a cashier for a local shop in your town or a sales clerk in a nearby shopping mall. However you get your foot in the door, you can be sure that first years working as retail sales associates will be an eye-opening experience that can be both fun and demanding. There are good employment opportunities in retail sales because the turnover rate is high, according to the U.S. Labor Department.
