Part time help wanted for Soons Orchards retail store ~ students to "seniors" welcome!
When: Start in late July for our 2008-2009 season, August 1 - May 31.
Who: High school students for after-school and weekends; college students and others for weekdays and some weekends. (Note: Students min. age is 14; you will need “working papers” available through your school)
What: Bring us your smarts and enthusiasm and we'll teach you sales, marketing and merchandising. No greasy fries or frilly fashions here -- just amazing apples, homegrown produce, and delicious baked goods and other treats (did we mention the employee discount?)
What Else: You must be willing to get your hands dirty! Weekends are required for high school students, especially September and October. Other than that, we are flexible on schedules and hours. If you've got talent, want to learn, and aren't afraid of a little hard work, we want you to join our talented team of students.
Please note, we are a seasonal business: hours are heavy in the busy (August/Sept/Oct) season, and reduced in the off season (winter/spring), and none in June-July while we are closed.
Requirements:
- Reliable, responsible, self-directed.
- Positive attitude & outgoing.
- Able to lift at least 15 pounds comfortably. Willing to get hands dirty and be on feet for a minimum of four hours.
- Don't mind a chilly store in the winter months.
Interest/experience in retail and customer service a plus.
