OLIVER SABIN

Los Angeles,CA

Summary

Have been working diligently since I was 14 years old, working in my fathers old frozen yogurt shop.

  • Worked in many retail stores such as frozen yogurt stores and pharmacies like CVS, giving much experience in welcoming customers and such services (having been a cashier). I am also very adept at being efficiently social with customers, as well as counting money and collecting payments/handling customer complaints. These jobs have made me committed to ensuring each customer receives outstanding service by providing friendly and helpful support.
  • Also worked in various beach summer camps, working all day every day of the week with younger children as well as in private surf lessons with older adults. This work has given me areas of expertise such as thoughtfulness in work, group work, ability to multitask, problem solving, cleanliness, remembering jobs and staying on task, staying active and socially adept, good communication, patience, and recalling of inventory and inventory locations or pricing.
