The Home Depot offer benefits and paid vacation as well as training to their new employees. Checkers and Boston Market offer positions for students that may not have a full resume and don't have much available time, or work experience.
Barbara, one of Macys hiring managers said that "you don't need that much experience to start working for us" and "the pay is minimum wage for starting sales positions."
A manager at a local deli said that job seekers should look "presentable" when applying for positions. Other businesses in the area asked that job seekers cover tattoos and excess piercings.
Some applications can be done on site, while others need to be completed online. Check with individual retailers for their policies.
