Forget everything you think you know about retail. Back in '76, while the world was doing its thing, Sharon Sherman was busy building something different – a side hustle selling clocks and gifts with a whole lot of heart. Fast forward nearly half a century, and Sherman's has blossomed into four locations packed with home appliances, furniture, and mattresses. Sure, we've grown beyond microwaves, but our family values? Rock solid. Show Concern. Have Fun. Be Helpful. DemonstrateIntegrity. Show Ambition. Develop Relationships. Now, about you. You’re not looking for just any customer service, call center job. You want to be part of something real, something positive, where "dreading Monday" isn't in your vocabulary. You’re excited to help people and work alongside genuinely awesome folks every single day. About the Role: Your Impact at Sherman's You’ll be the first point of contact for our customers, helping them resolve issues, find information, and ensure their homes run smoothly. Where Work Meets Fun & Connection Let’s be real: "customer service" can sound a bit… well, daunting. But here at Sherman's, we're flipping the script. We believe customer service can be, dare we say, fun! We do it by supporting each other, growing together, and embracing our authentic selves every single day. Why You’ll Love Working With Us We’re Goofy (and Proud of It!) - We're a bunch of passionate people who love helping others (and tacos, dogs, breakfast pizza, and more!). Our Core Values aren't just words on a wall; they're how we live and breathe, bringing our full, authentic selves to work every day. We Work Better Together - It's easy to enjoy working with people you genuinely like! While you'll be on the phone helping customers individually, our "bullpen" is buzzing with quick questions, shared laughs, and department managers just close enough for a playful rubber chicken toss (but far enough for plotting lighthearted pranks). We Ask All the Questions – "How would you have handled this?" "Ever seen this before?" "Is it Taco Tuesday yet?" (You know, the truly essential questions!). We foster a culture of shared knowledge where no question is a bad question. We're here to help you succeed, whether it's navigating a tricky customer issue or ensuring we ordered enough churros. We Empower Each Other – We want you to feel confident and capable tackling anything that comes your way. That means comprehensive training, constructive feedback, and plenty of grace. Mistakes happen, but we see them as opportunities to learn and grow together. Get ready for our beloved acronyms, color‑coded spreadsheets, sticky notes, and the occasional song and dance during training!
