"I've worked in retail since I graduated high school, first as a cashier, then a sales associate, and now as an assistant manager. But I feel like I've stalled in my forward movement. I want to keep moving up, maybe even to a district or regional management position, but I don't think I will get that opportunity with my current company. I know that Barnes and Noble offers opportunities for upward movement and cross-training in multiple departments. At this point in my career, that training and those opportunities are exactly what I need, and I hope that my years of experience will also fill a need for Barnes and Noble."
