Most of your day is talking to people, answering questions, walking customers to the right aisle, ringing up sales, and helping out wherever the store needs a hand. Candidates who know how to cut glass, mix paint, cut keys, rekey locks and more will be considered before others. It is preferred but not required that you know about hardware on day one.
