Exploring This Job
One way to explore the retailing field is through part-time or summer employment in a store. A good time to look for such work is during the Christmas holiday season. Search for job listings on Web sites such as Indeed, CareerBuilder, Monster, and LinkedIn. You can also check the stores' Web sites for job openings in their careers section, or visit the stores you're interested in working for and ask if they're looking for help. Occasionally, experience in a retail store can be found through special high school programs.
