The position is structured to provide flexible scheduling, requiring a minimum of 20 hours per week, primarily Monday through Friday between early morning and midday, with occasional weekend hours during busier periods. Employees are compensated with a competitive hourly wage of $17.00, paid on a weekly basis, and have access to early wage advances to ensure financial flexibility.

This role entails travelling to assigned retail locations within a designated territory to perform merchandising tasks such as auditing, maintaining, and installing consumer electronics displays and products—including TVs, tablets, headphones, speakers, printers, and phones.
