BOOKSELLERS
We are looking for passionate, customer service-oriented, well-spoken, well-read, fun, engaging, all-around book ninjas to work in both of our locations! The position includes nights and weekends. We are seeking applicants who have an ability to learn, work well with others, are detail-oriented, and can engage with customers. It’s a lively work environment that offers a varied workday ranging from moving boxes of books to offering personal book recommendations to—always and above all—providing top-notch customer service. Every day, booksellers help customers find books, shelve books and maintain displays, operate cash registers, take special orders, and answer phones.
Bookseller positions are full-time (40hrs/wk) or part-time (minimum of 20 hours/week). Booksellers must be able to stay calm under pressure, juggle many tasks, retain a lot of information, stand on their feet for up to 8 hours at a time, and lift boxes of books (usually 25-30lbs each), all while maintaining a polite and professional demeanor with customers. This is a fast-paced job. It is mentally and physically taxing. Successful booksellers must become proficient at Booklog, our POS/Inventory system and have the ability to multi-task & work effectively in a team environment.
Skills Needed:
We expect booksellers to have strong verbal and written communication skills, as well as excellent interpersonal skills. In addition to Booklog, you will need to learn Edelweiss, Ingram, and Microsoft Office if you are not already familiar with them.
