Any Employees in the DFW?

Just wondering if their were any cingular guys in the dfw that knew of any cingular stores(corporate or franchise) that are hiring?? Seriously, I have applied to a few corporate stores but I always seem to be a day late and a dollar short if you know what I mean so I figured I would ask the experts. If anyone could provide any information then that would great, but I also have some other questions that I hope you guys could shed some light on.

1.) Does cingular have seasonal like other retail organizations and this is just a bad time to apply?
2.) I have noticed that a lot of retail employees for cingular seem to be in the 24-35 age range, is that something they prefer??

thanks in advance

Any past sales experience? I would suggest getting a job at a Agent location or possibly a Sam's Club Kiosk. Neither will not be quite as good as far as money, but it is good experience because not all traffic will be your traffic, it will help to develope customer interaction skills. Just a suggestion.

Also those stores have a quicker turn around rate than most COR locations.

Well actually I have been with Radio Shack for just about a year, I am a full time sales associate-Key holder and I am on the waiting list for assistant manager. I have also been the number 1 seller in wireless since I have been employed(at my store) and a few years of customer servie to go on top of that. As for the previous attempts at applying, for some reason I always seem to apply the day they actually find someone(that is my fault for not checking daily). In my opinion my resume is pretty solid but if any of you guys know what a good resume looks like and could offer any advice then I would be more than happy to shoot out a few emails.

why dont you work for Fry's then? I used to work there but had to move to Waco for school. Commission is crazy there and you get paid weekly. I'd bring home 1-2g's a week.

Fry's pay plan has changed since you left. It is much, much different.

Maybe you have too much experience.

I doubt they pay anywhere close to that now. Their salespeople seem very unmotivated.

What store are you working for in Waco? I moved from there in august... not corporate but premeier... the kiosk in the mall, and the store in the marketplace. Pretty good locations.

Hey OP, give www.primecomms.com a glance. Lots of stores in the area, if you cant get COR, we're premier.
