The Source (Bell Media), Summers of 2013-2015
This was a very enjoyable experience as a major part of the job was having a thorough understanding of the bulk of electronic products carried at our location. This meant I got to play with and test every kind of mobile phone available on the market, spend a lot of time playing with remote-controlled toys, drones, and video and hand-held game consoles. This ensured deep product knowledge to help our customers choose the right product, no matter who they were shopping for.
I had such a good time learning on the job with the devices and the online courses through our portals that soon I was leading my own team every summer, eventually achieving district-wide recognition for the highest cell phone sales in August 2015. The store managers also trusted me to be the official key holder during busy periods, training of new hires without any managerial supervisor, and taking district-wide conference calls once a week during our "sales-attack" sessions.
