Roots Employer Reviews

As an intern I may have been removed from some of the acute stresses of full time employment, but my time at roots has been a wonderful experience. My boss was friendly and accomodating and the facilities are clean and pleasant. The hardest part of the job is the commute by public transit. The best part of the job was the creativity and being able to – more... be surrounded by fashion! – less

My typical days starts with checking my email and responding to clients. Ordering records from state and government archives. Inputting data into family trees, accounting, dealing with vendors and contractors.

My co-workers – more... are great people.
Hardest part is reading 100 year old Italian docs.

A typical day would start out with me entering the shop and cleaning the store whilst awaiting for the daily deliveries to arrive. I would receive, sort and put away the shipment of merchandise. Once I had finished I would then go out on to the shop floor and help sell the product. I enjoyed working there because the management team was fun and a pleasure – more... to work for. I learnt a lot about myself, how I'm able to manage people and good ways to sell a product. The job did become hard when it was a peak period as I would receive 80 boxes of merchandise. – less
