Im allocated in the Shoe area, typical day involves keeping all shoe boxes aligned and ensure every shoe is set on display. Customer service involves greeting each customer and asking if they need any help with shoe preferences or requirements.

The most enjoyable part of the job is meeting new people who come with different stories about why they are buying new shoes or when they come with their children looking for new colourful shoes.

The hardest part if the management of the workplace is not as efficient as it should be, lunch times are not always given for the times we are entitled to. Also each person is allocated an area but if one area is very untidy and needs extra assistance, we are not allowed to go help incase customers come in the store which adds more pressure on the employee trying to clean and serve customers in the untidy area.

I have learned a lot from this current job. Mostly to be more independent, being able to juggle providing customer service to a number of different customers at once and being able to find something to suit their needs and their personal liking within the price range they seek. Also learned to meet sale targets by trying new promotions and changing the appearance of shoes so they are easily noticed by customers and adding small notices which help customers to know what is so 'good' about the specific show.

My day started at 9 am and I was greeted with a male over 50 and he wanted a wide shoe that he will feel comfortable walking in. 
Whilst sizing and informing him what was best, a general conversation was taken and we both came to realisation we are from the same town originally. 

Throughout the day I can a number of infant and child shoes to fit, which consists of getting the juniors to take their shoes off and stand on the sizing board. They find it very fun as a result to the board changing colour with the heat. They than pick the shoe they like and I will see if it is in stock. 

I learn everyday that children will adapt to situations all at different times in their life. Some might do it sooner, some might be later. 

My co-workers are all in the same area so we are a close team and know how to handle stressed situations. 

The hardest part of the job would be when we don't have their favourite in stock and their faces drop because they cant have them. 

On the other side my favourite part of the job would definitely when they get their shoe on, it fits and its comfortable. I feel like i have helped them become the best they can be as their joggers will get them active outside or inside for that case.

If you end up with a good bunch of coworkers, it truly makes up for the endless stress of ridiculous targets. management tends to be pretty awful and if you end up a register operator, good luck. 
however the training provided is extensive and can make even the least sportiest person in the world sound like they know what they're doing. 
It is super hard to secure good hours with the company, youre either full time and comfortable or youre stressing every week to see if you did well enough to deserve shifts next week. 
there used to be commission for sales but somehow even after getting rid of it theres still a lot of petty competition among stores. 
however its all worth it if you eventually hit that sweet spot of being friends all your team and management and secure some shifts for yourself each week. 

Rebel is a great place to work, the managers at my store are amazing and understanding with employees who have other commitments such as uni, they're flexible with their rostering and always willing to listen to feedback. The workplace culture is really good as well especially because we have such a good team - everyone is so nice and they're honestly the most enjoyable part of the job for me, along with making customers happy with our service of course.
The hardest part is the rude customers that we get every so often, but at least they're not too common at this store. A typical day at work depends on what department you're in, you could be on registers or on the floor but there are always KPIs to achieve. Working here has taught me a lot regarding customer service and making sales, and overall I would highly recommend it.

Definately a great place to start. Or while you're figuring out where to go next. Training is extensive and an opportunity to work in lots of different areas and even move to management. Some managers are very supportive and the best you'll ever meet while others only focus on a promotion and they will walk over staff and bully them to get what they want. Keep your wits about you and never assume they don't have an agenda. Majority of part time and full time staff stay there for a while (at least 2 years, up to 15). I stayed for 2. You don't have to love or even play sport to excel at this job, although it will help. 

I've only been working at Rebel Sport for a couple of months now and so far it's been a great experience. Rebel Sport has been my first job ever so there was a lot of things that I had to learn, it was a challenge at first but then became fun as time went along. I did also study Retail Services in year 11 & 12 which did also really did come in handy too. In the few months I've been at Rebel Sport I have been trained to be a register operator. In been a register operator has many commitments along with it which includes, greeting & farewelling customers, communicating skills used, cash handling, answering phones, exchanges, refund.
I have made great friends with my co-workers.
Everyday at Rebel Sport is a enjoyable day.

Having the privilege to work at Amart sports was an amazing experience, I learned a lot of skills that will be useful to me in the future such as; customer service, Pricing items and Restocking shelves. I also was given tasks which I completed on the day I was given them. the hardest part of the job for me was understanding how to use equipment that wasn't relevant to me but got the hang of it in no time. the most enjoyable part of the job was to help assist older team members when they needed help.

Preparing stock ie. Refills and new stock, greeting customers and assisting their needs. Communicating with other team members or consulting them in everyday operation and running of the store. 

I learnt how to better meet customers needs and how to replenish stock along with recovering stock. Organizing stock in an eye-catching order and which styles were available that were trending at present. 

Management was exceptional. Details of what was expected from team members was clear and precise. The running of the store ran smoothly from opening to closing.

The most enjoyable part of the job was learning new skills.

A typical day at work is normal as they allow you to work in different departments. I've learnt many things during my time there such as working in the different departments such as hard goods and footwear along with working at the registers. The management is nice to their employees as the employees are generous to one another. The workplace is an ok environment to work in even though the store is small. The hardest part of the job is my travel to work as it can take up to 45 minutes to drive to work. The most enjoyable part of the job is to be able to engage with customers and help them out with what they need.

Have worked at Rebel for over 7 years, have gone through 2 different store managers and 6 floor managers. If you’re favoured by the staff member doing the rosters than you’ll get plenty of shifts. Harassment claims get swept under the carpet, and there is zero accountability for managers or full timers when they make mistakes, but make sure you don’t make any as a casual. You’ll pay for it. Overall, if you enjoy a decent discount on sports clothing and equipment, but do not think you’ll get a lot of shifts or reliable income.
