Seasonal Retail Sales Associate, Visalia
About The Position
As a Seasonal Retail Selling Colleague at Macy’s, you combine results-focused selling with genuine hospitality to create memorable holiday shopping experiences. You learn what customers need, provide personalized recommendations, and connect them with appropriate products and services. Through customer engagement and effective selling behaviors, you work toward sales goals, build trust, and encourage customer loyalty. The role is more than cashiering and includes helping keep the shopping space clean, organized, and inviting. Colleagues prepare for the day by reviewing sales goals, learning about new arrivals, top-selling items, trends, and promotions, and ensuring the sales floor is ready for customers. During the day, they welcome customers, build personal connections, maintain a shoppable space, merchandise new receipts, process damages and selected returns to vendors, update signs and pricing, and support merchandise moves. They share loyalty program benefits, help customers complete their visits, and collaborate with colleagues to serve customers and meet individual and store goals. Seasonal colleagues are typically scheduled for 10–20 hours per week. Hours depend on business needs and colleague availability.
