The Used Book Superstore in Burlington, MA is looking to add a full-time 40 Hour employee to work sorting/processing inventory in the backroom/warehouse of the store. Willing to consider a 24-32 hour per week position also.
NOT A SUMMER ONLY POSITION.
After setting records in 2023, our best year ever, we are growing! We need dependable, book-loving, hard working people to join our team! Tell me why you think you'd be a good fit!
We are not desperate and won't settle. So if you aren't awesome and reliable and hardworking, we'd love to have you as a customer, but it won't work as an employee.
The store is pretty awesome and so are our people... We have recently been featured on TV, Radio and Print... https://www.masslive.com/business/2022/12/mass-largest-used-bookstore-started-in-a-basement-now-its-13000-square-feet.html & https://www.wcvb.com/article/bargains-hunt-for-incredible-discounts-at-the-used-book-superstore-save-some-money-and-go-back-to-school-at-keefe-regional-technical-school/38531748 & https://wbznewsradio.iheart.com/content/bookworms-dream-burlington-used-book-superstore-always-changes-inventory/
Health Insurance for Full Timers. Dental insurance available to all. Paid Time Off starts immediately for everyone. Employee discounts are extremely generous!
This is a permanent position, NOT just a temporary job. We want someone who plans to stick around and be a part of our team for a while.
Some of the duties of this position include:
*Processing, sorting and organizing Books and DVDs
*Preparing inventory for online sale
*Labeling inventory
At times, this does require some light physical labor. Moving boxes, carts, etc. Be able to lift up to 50 pounds and don’t mind getting your hands dirty. It's a warehouse environment, so a little chilly in the winter and warm in the summer.
You will work with a small group of just a few other people, so everyone needs to do their part.
You will learn and be able to do all of the different jobs in the back room. This job is vital to make sure that the booksellers in the front of the store have everything they need to stock the shelves and that our online operation runs smoothly. It's a great staff and you'll get to learn many different tasks that keep the place running!
You MUST be detail oriented. Many of the jobs are not the most exciting, so be the type of person who can handle repetitive tasks and stay focused. Be able to handle multiple tasks without needing a babysitter or having to be reminded multiple times.
Knowledge of books is especially helpful and preferred.
We have some flexibility with the schedule, as the backroom is open from 7:00am to 4:30 Monday to Friday. No night or weekend hours!
Starting rate is $18.00 per hour.
Interviewing and looking for someone to start immediately.
WHEN APPLYING, TELL ME WHY YOU THINK YOU WOULD BE GOOD FOR THIS JOB. This is your first "Attention to Detail" test to see if you are paying attention or if you are just sending out resumes as quickly as possible to keep someone happy. Let's not waste time. If you're serious, then tell me why you want this job and you could have a job starting very soon.
