Work history

BooksellerSelfridges
Nov 2015 - May 2016
Worked in the book department of the Oxford Street branch of Selfridges as a bookseller. The role involved many aspects, largely managing stock, advising and assisting customers and arranging attractive displays. It required a familiarity with the fiction and non-fiction charts, as well as the most popular children's authors. I was assigned the children's and classics sections, according to my areas of interest and expertise.
