• Bookseller : A bookseller’s main function is to help customers. Therefore you must love to help people, have excellent manners, and be genuinely friendly. Booksellers are also expected to shelve books quickly and efficiently, answer phones, work at the registers, maintain displays throughout the store, keep current with what is on the best seller lists and other book news, and express an overall willingness to learn new duties throughout the store. Booksellers are the “happy-helpy” faces of Title Wave Books – the friendly folks you see out and about on the sales floor, at the registers, and the Information Counter.

• Book Processor : The main function of a book processor is to get all of the books ready to sell. Book processors clean our used books, prep the new books, sort all of the books by category, sticker the books, then take them out to the sales floor. They are also responsible for the shelving and maintenance of our Genre Fiction section, located at the back of the store. Book Processors must also keep current with best sellers and other book news. Book processors are also expected to help customers throughout the store, answer phones, and assist in other behind-the-scenes duties in the Processing Department that keep Title Wave Books running smoothly.
