What Store Managers Need to Show
Applicants for Store Manager roles should make leadership experience easy to find in the CV. Useful evidence includes responsibility for turnover, staff scheduling or development, shrinkage or stock-loss control, merchandising, customer-service results and performance against sales targets. TFG store-management roles commonly require Matric and prior retail experience with store-leadership exposure.
What Sales Applicants Should Highlight
Sales Associate applicants should focus on customer-facing strengths. Previous retail or sales exposure can help, but the CV should also show communication, reliability, confidence, teamwork and the ability to work toward targets. A genuine interest in sport, fitness, footwear or apparel can also help a candidate explain why Totalsports is a suitable retail environment for them.
