Home Depot, Anchorage, Alaska, AYUSA
Experience with agency AYUSA was positive.
All maximum correctly and professionally . Mostly I contacted Dusan Baros for all the questions I had. He answered virtually instantly on e - mails at any time of day or night.
Experience with location Anchorage, AK was positive.
Anhcorage, the largest city of Alaska. During May, June and July temperature is pleasant 25 or So degrees and 24 hours a day is sunny ie no night and darkness. August and September are generally rainy, with possible snow in September. The locals are friendly, relaxed and comunicativ. Center of the town is small, with a few exclusive restaurants, several bars and a discotheque. All have an entry ban under 21 years old, and in my opinion is not worth anything particularly interesting for nightlife, as is not much popular. The possibility of finding another job is great, but the competition is also in the center of a large, mainly because the Bulgarians come early, so pick up a better position. I recommend looking for jobs in midtown and south Anchorage. Approximately every objective on some positions where the waiter takes a huge tip. For me this is wrong, because it is not as open places, competition is high, hours are weak and more logical to work in the nearest Walmart full time, rather than wait for you if you call the restaurant, and if you invite the question is how many hours you will get the general.
The city is ideal for those who want to combine it plenty of physical activity, bicycle, jogging, hiking, etc..
Problem is to find accommodation, I recommend everyone to previously know before coming to America, and agree to live together and share expenses, Craiglist percent to the price of a decent private rooms cost up to $ 600.
Experience with employer Home Depot
was positive.
Wage per hour 11.75 $
Hours per week: 32-40 (and sometimes overtime )
Average tip : forbidden to take , but if you are smart you can always pull something providing an excellent and friendly service to customer. Mostly sometimes tips get those loaded in the parking lot ( Lot Attendant )
Sale asistant in Home Depot in . Easy job , it is essential to civilized approach and always smiling face to the customer. Positions are the same, you just distribution such that you are working in the department for the garden , or for paints and varnishes , in the section for tools and electronics, for building materials , or to work on your order, that is prepare the goods for downloading or uploading .
The most important thing is that you want to do that kind of work and that you follow the rules and above all want to learn all you did not know previously .
The possibility of obtaining the bonus ( Homer awards ) , and if you show as a good worker , you can always come up with the activity and ask the manager to stay longer and work overtime to 17.6 $ / h
