Having been my first formal work experience, JC Penney allowed me the opportunity to learn time management, accountability, teamwork, and customer service skills. In an often fast-paced and chaotic environment, I maintained a positive attitude while providing product recommendations, up-selling credit-cards through a no-pressure check-out experience, and keeping my station as well as the product displays tidy and organized at all times.
