"I have worked in retail for the past eight years. My most challenging position was with Company ABC. I found it so challenging because it was a different industry than I was accustomed. I learned a great deal during that time. This position was also my favorite because it was such a great challenge. I like to be pushed beyond my boundaries. It keeps me motivated to be better."

"While I haven't yet worked in a retail environment, I'm excited to get started! I love learning new things, especially when it comes to working with and serving other people. In college, I worked in a writing lab where I corrected younger students' essays and helped them prepare for English exams. It was a challenging job, but I learned so much about listening, practicing patience, and helping frustrated students feel at ease. I think that experience set me up for success in the retail world!"
