Q&A: Assistance in Writing Resume?
Question by a-c: Assistance in Writing Resume?
I’m writing a Resume to apply for a Retail Assistant position and i’m describing the duties that i was required to do in my old job?
Now the issue is the wording of my duties as i’m not completely confident with the way to describe what i used to do…
So I worked at a video shop; Working the till, putting people’s details into a database & signing up new customers, i dealt with customer assistance and basically scanning the items into the computer, putting their money into the till then giving the person their change? I basically worked as the sales person..
Now iv’e written that my job title was Retail Assistant & Customer Service..
I just don’t know how to the duties into a nice list for my resume.
Thank you!

You pretty much did this in writing your question.
You may wish to make it sound a bit fancier, but don’t overstate it, especially if your new employer knows the previous place. Most folks get what working at a video shop entails!
You might say:-
Welcomed and signed up new customers
Explained hiring options, rates, surcharges and range of services
Recommended alternative movies when demand exceeded supply
Handled all sales, cash and credit card transactions, and cash register operations
What do you reckon?
