There's going to be an Aritzia Hiring Fair on Robson Street (Robson street expansion), this Sunday from 9-11AM, if you're interested in working at Aritzia.

I'm sure there are other clothing stores that are hiring too.

thanks! but i have a feeling artizia wont want me there, and besides, my friend said it was brutal working there, all the girls competing for the sale and all, i'd rather work at a more relaxed place

Do you want to give me an idea on where you want to work? Like what you prefer? I have quite a few friends who manage retail stores.

Oh wow. Congrats on becoming a veggie head! How old are you if you don't mind me asking? I know for a fact that there group that works downtown is still relatively young and they are mostly friendly. A few of my friends work down there.

Of course of course I know what you mean. If you want you can forward your resume to me and I can forward it to my friend. She's one of the Managers there.

shouldn't she hand in her own resume herself?
