Hallmark Cards, Inc.

Retail Merchandiser

September 2019 • Hialeah, FL

What I liked

I like how flexible the hours. I am able to balance my academics, as well as my personal and work schedule.

What I wish was different

I wish that I would’ve joined this job earlier in the summer because it has given so much experience already. I have learned interpersonal skills, time management, how to follow instructions, and more.

Advice

One thing I’d share about my experience at Hallmark would be how it changes your viewpoint. A big chunk of the job is organizing the cards that are on display at the store, which is often in disarray because of customers. This job taught me that everything you touch in a store has it’s place, as well as a person who puts it in that place. Essentially, the advice I’d give is respect everyone’s workspace.

I wish I would have gotten the job sooner. It's my favorite place I have worked so far.

Advice

Working over summer isn't always the most fun experience, but it is worth it in the end.

Sales Associate

June 2016 • Chicago Ridge, IL

What I liked

I have had this job for two summers and during school breaks. I enjoy the friendships I have built with my coworkers and the rapport I have with customers. I also enjoy organizing and employing customer service skills.

What I wish was different

I wish I would have had more hours.

Advice

I think everyone should have a “lower end” job at least once. It teaches you respect, patience, and how to build customer service skills.
