Employer: Vallivue School District, Vallivue High School
Job Function : Dropout Prevention Tracker
Job Duties: I mentored resource youth at Vallivue High School. While working as a liaison between students, parents, special education case managers, and general education teachers, I worked with these students to encourage organization, help with social skills, encourage teacher-student interaction, and foster self-advocacy. I provided various forms of scaffolding to their ensure success, no matter the barrier. This was an atmosphere that often had the potential of becoming hostile. The students in many of these classrooms struggled to get along due to lack of social skills, ADHD, ODD, Bi-polar disorder, ED, Autism, and other socioeconomic concerns. Consistent accountability, encouragement, planning, goal setting, and enthusiasm produced positive outcomes. I often worked to provide students with supplement materials and resources to accommodate their needs according to their IEP’s.

Supervisor's Title District Administrator
Employer: Wal-mart, Caldwell
Job Function: Customer Service Manager, Cashier and Sales Associate.
Job Duties: My position at the store began as a Sales associate. Within a few months, I was promoted to cashier, and a few short months later, I was promoted again to become a part of the front end management team. As a Customer Service Manger, I worked with excellence provide quality customer services to Wal-mart’s customers through attention to detail while adhering to company, state, and federal regulations for transactions, returns, safety, and customer satisfaction (while ensuring that those I supervised did the same). I approved and declined transactions, planned ahead to ensure adequate coverage had been scheduled, and followed up, to make sure that requests were followed through. A chief concern among my many responsibilities was money handling. While keeping a ledger for the podium drawer and another for loans that were borrowed from the cash office, (for money center and registers) I, along with upper management kept track of monies. I performed multiple audits per day on registers to check on associate detail. I also worked with Asset Protection to monitor cashiers that were suspected of theft. I received armored monies into the cash office. Ensuring that registers had an adequate supply of cash, and stamps and gift cards was another duty. I trained cashiers, money center associates in all front end tasks including cashiering, check cashing, money card transaction, bill payments, WIC program, food stamps, alcohol and tobacco laws and regulations. I supervised about 35 associates on a daily basis who were responsible for registers, greeting customers, courtesy clerks, maintenance, money center, and providing quality customer service. One occasion in my supervisor’s absence, I scheduled all 100 associates that work on the front end of the store for a two week period using the computer program and the associates’ availability schedules. Multitasking and thinking on one’s feet was crucial to effective execution of duties and direction of store personnel.
