The Retail Scan Associate performs in-store data collection at assigned local retailers each week for 52 weeks a year, including holiday weeks. Using a downloadable app on a mobile phone, the associate scans barcodes in numerous locations throughout each store and records quantities for about 45% of the products scanned. Store types may include grocery, convenience, drug, pet, and mass merchandise retailers, including major national chains and small independent retailers. The associate reports to assigned stores within specified deadlines and completes Display Scanning throughout the entire store each week, which can take several hours.

Dependability, accuracy, and meeting weekly deadlines are important. The position offers independence and some flexibility in scheduling, with continuous physical activity during shifts. This is a permanent, part-time position averaging 8–10 base hours per week across stores, depending on store size and workload. Additional project hours are frequently assigned during the year, with higher demand from January through June. The role includes work during holiday weeks. Scheduling details are reviewed during the interview.
