What you’ll be doing

As a full-time Verizon Retail Sales Associate, you’ll have the opportunity to grow your career with a team focused on unlocking your full potential and sales success within one of our retail stores. Here’s what you can expect:

• Generate retail sales by using your passion for cutting-edge technology and exceptional customer service to expand the Verizon network.

• Engage with the community outside of the store to expand your loyal customer base, including at off-site Verizon-sponsored events.

We’re hiring immediately! This isn’t a typical entry-level retail position. Whether you’re just starting out or have years of sales experience, you can earn base pay between $16.00 and $21.00 per hour, plus up to $16,000 per year in individual-based commissions if you hit all sales goals. Top performers could earn additional commissions, with earnings potentially ranging from $65,000 to $73,500+ annually. Compensation varies by geography, hours worked, and performance.

Our comprehensive benefits starting day one are designed to help you move forward in your career and life outside of Verizon. Benefits include health and well-being options, education and career investments, and more.

• Best in class medical, dental, and vision
