WORK PLACEMENT

Now I'll speak to you about my work placement of last year.

I did it in jules in Lisieux. It was a discovery placement.
Jules is a specialty shop more precisely a franchise who is made up of six employes. It's a small shop, it surface is two thousand meters square. The concurents of Jules are Brice, Célio, Sirroco, Burton. They sell men's clothes. They have all style for men, for exemple tee shirt, jeans, pullover, jacket, suit...

I was looked after by the boss. My supervisor was in charge of the salesman, of the sales, of the marketing, of the customer service.

I started at nine AM and finished at seven PM. I had an hour and a half off for lunch. Sometimes I did overrtime, especially before christmas.

My job involved helping or advising customers and stocking shelves or making reservation. I did the package. At the begining it's dificult because I didn't know the products, but at the end it's easier. I had to help customers, when they arrived I advice them. I had to help her when they surch a size or a colour. When there was a lot of people I had to help the cashier, or I had to go at the fitting room. But I didn't toutch at the check acount. When there was no customers I had to ranck per size and per colour clothes.

I see two situations in Jules, before christmas when there was a lot of customers and after christmas when there was a few people. I prefer when there was customers because I was always doing something.

My supervisor didn't paid me but he gave me chocolates and when I bought an article in this store he gave me a coupon of twenty percent.
Wath I really enjoyed is the contact with the customers. I wouldn't like doing this job, in fact it's very bored but my placement was good, there was a good ambiance.
