Burlington Coat Factory is committed to providing its customers with a neat, clean, easy-to-navigate shopping experience. While you might not be naturally meticulous, as a retail employee, you will be expected to keep your work area neat and organized. This might include folding and hanging clothes, cleaning fitting rooms, and wiping down countertops. Assure the interviewer that you will contribute to creating a clean and orderly environment.

"Before I worked in retail, I made extra cash in college by cleaning houses. I enjoy cleaning and organizing; I find it very meditative. Whenever there's downtime at the store where I currently work, I'm the first to grab the broom or duster and get to work tidying up the store."

"During my exit interview at my most recent retail job, my supervisor told me how much she appreciated my hard work and willingness to perform cleaning tasks around the store that my coworkers weren't excited about, like taking out the trash or vacuuming the whole store at the end of the night. I don't mind cleaning, and I know that putting in the extra effort makes a huge impact on how customers feel in the store."
