Job description

Kid to Kid pays parents in the community cash for their outgrown kids' clothes, toys, and baby gear. We are looking for energetic and friendly associates to delight customers and vendors as we help parents earn and save. This individual will explain the buying process to vendors, sort through their things and explain why we passed on certain items. You will also be trained to appraise the items in our computer system and process incoming product to get it onto the floor. Another responsibility will be cashiering. We pay vendors for things we buy and ring up sales when customers buy from us. We also work together to maintain an organized, upscale store. We will train you on everything you need to know through online and hands-on training.

If you like a fast-paced work environment, and are good at communicating and making people feel valued and important, this could be a great job for you. You will be working in a small team but will have a lot of responsibility.

Responsibilities:

• Provide fast, friendly service making vendors feel appreciated and valued.
• Sort through incoming product quickly and make good decisions about condition and quality.
• Learn to use new technology like our computer appraisal program to correctly price items.
• Tag and hang merchandise.
• Cross train for various positions and work in other areas of the store as needed.
• Be proactive and act quickly to solve customer concerns.

What Makes You a Great Fit?

• Ideal candidate will always wear a smile, be very fast-paced, have excellent customer service skills, and be a quick learner.
• Knowledge about kid's fashion is important as the individual will be spending most of their time checking in customers who would like to sell their children's items to the store and sorting through their items making decisions on what would be good items for the store to buy and which would not.
• This individual needs to know or quickly learn through on-the-job training what colors, patterns, fabrics, and styles are current within the last couple of years and which are dated. They must be aware of what is selling and what types of items are not selling well in our store.
• Individuals will need to stay very organized in their work, be able to manage rushes and occasional stressful days, and always be willing to bounce around multi-tasking and helping others.
• Saturdays are our busiest day of the week, and will be required most of the time.
• Part Time or Full Time availability.

Compensation: $14.00 - $16.00 per hour
