If you answered YES to all of the above, Everett Jewelry IS your dream job. You don’t even need to have previous sales experience! We sell the most incredible jewelry in Louisiana.

We believe in being the friendly neighborhood diamond store (we’re not into that car dealership pressure-you-for-a-sale vibe) and in leaving every single person who walks out of our store with a smile. Everett Jewelry is the greatest diamond store in Louisiana because we do things differently from every other jewelry store, from having the most desirable brands to offering a much larger selection.

I’m Todd Everett, owner of Everett Jewelry, and I’m looking for some very special people to build relationships with our customers and sell a lot of jewelry. You may even HAVE a job already, but we think you’ll like THIS one better. We want people who are NOT just satisfied with an hourly wage, but hungry to make more and more money as they get better at their job. That’s why I pay all my employees commission on sales. We have salespeople making $40,000 to $75,000 per year. It’s likely you could be making around $45,000 after your first year if you’ve built those relationships where people keep coming back to buy all their jewelry from YOU.

Salary and Benefits:

• A minimum of $35,000
• On the job training
• Paid vacations
• 401K matching plan
• Health care plan

Requirements:

• Always be on time and in good spirits
• Greet every customer with a smile and make them feel at home
• Genuinely listen to what the customer wants and offer options and solutions
• Work well with your fellow employees.

Most importantly, I need people who are self-motivated and are great with people who can also follow instructions. Sure there’s a learning curve in ANY new job, but we’re the kind of company that will get you there fast. I believe my EMPLOYEES are the greatest asset, so I want you to be happy and will always have your back. I just need YOU to have the confidence to apply what you know, and the humility to ask what you don’t. There is a real future for those who prove themselves indispensable here. You can do that by being outgoing with all customers (a sense of showmanship), kind and helpful (servant’s heart), clean and presentable, upbeat not downcast, positive of mind and not complaining of spirit. This is a FUN place to work, and the people who work here love LIFE. Everyone leaves their troubles at the door when they come to work, and keeps a positive attitude while they’re on the clock. Now, most people reading this quite long job posting will have fired off a resume by now, but that means I won’t be calling those people. Anyone skimming through job descriptions and blindly blasting out resumes won’t have made it far enough to read the next paragraph. I have different instructions so I can weed out sloppy, half-hearted and inattentive people.

So, here’s what you do: Go ahead and attach your resume, but also, attach a Cover Letter telling me a little about yourself, your work experience, education or anything else you think I’d like to know, and finally, WHY you think you would be a perfect fit with Everett Jewelry.

I look forward to talking to you.
