Thank you for your interest in seeking employment at Changing Hands Bookstore. Because any employment decision is a very important one, we'd like to give you some basic information about working here that might influence your decision to apply.

We are seeking employees who are book lovers and customer-oriented. This is a detailed and sometimes physically demanding job. You will spend long hours on your feet. We hire part-time and full-time employees. We need colleagues who are available to work some evenings and weekends on a regular, not rotating, basis. We need all employees to help customers with book and gift purchases, to work as cashiers, and to help logistically for in-store and offsite events.

Bringing books and people together is personally rewarding, yet working in a bookstore is not for everyone. Our beginning pay is $7.50 per hour, possibly more if you have previous bookselling experience. You can expect to move into other areas of operation as opportunities present themselves and your interests and expertise develop. We see teamwork, book knowledge, flexibility and, above all, customer service as critical elements to the success of this store.

There are benefits to offset the hard work. Employees become part of a 35-year old independent community bookstore. Renowned speakers come through the store. Employees receive advanced copies of books. Employees receive discounts on books and gifts. Vacation and sick leave are paid based on length of employment, and the store provides medical and dental reimbursement.

If you feel that you can fulfill the requirements above, please apply for a position. Should a position be immediately available that combines your interest and qualifications with our needs, we will contact you. If no positions are initially available, we will keep your application for three months.

Thanks again for your interest in seeking employment at our bookstore.
