Matrix Jobs
Matrix Merchandising offers jobs across a broad spectrum of types and descriptions that allow us to employ a widely diverse group of
people who are focused on one thing--execution of merchandising programs and standards. Most people who work for us value the fact that their
schedule is flexible enough to allow them to balance their work life with their personal lives. Some want just a few hours of work per week
in order to earn a little extra money for the finer things in life and to give them a chance to make new friends and to exercise their
bodies. Others have made Matrix Merchandising their career choice, finding the entrepreneurial spirit and family flavor of the company a
comfortable fit with their own ideals and preferences, and appreciating the freedom that they are afforded to make their future with the
company whatever they can imagine. Although most of our positions are part-time and a number of them are seasonal, we are always looking for
talented people to fill full time and salaried positions who can help us become even better.
In all, if you are looking for a company that will provide you with opportunity, if you are flexible, self-motivated, and hard working, and
if you find job satisfaction in making sure that everything is in its place and that there is a place for everything, please apply with us
today. We can't wait to meet you!
Physical Limitations
Often times, people believe that working in a retail store is a fun, easy job that will allow them to shop while they work. The harsh reality is that lifting up to 20 pounds hundreds of times a day is
physically exhausting, and can result in a myriad of aches and pains. If you're interested in working for Matrix, you should ask yourself a number of questions. Can I stand all day, for up to ten hours a day? Can I easily
lift heavy items above my head with both arms, and can I squat in order to put those same heavy things on the floor, beneath fixtures? Do I have allergies that might be
aggravated by the retail store environment? Am I prepared to push and pull pallet jacks and heavy floats?
Every one of our employees, from the newest of new hires through the senior management team, is expected to do all of those things, every day, day in and day out. Although there is a lot of fun to be had, every position is based
in hard work that is physically demanding. Unless you look forward to going home exhausted, this may not be the career path for you.
Dress Code
Although we appreciate every person's right to express themselves, we also reserve the right to express our company's ideals. For that
reason, tattoos, scarring, piercings and other forms of body art that you may have must be covered or removed during the time you are at
work. There is also a strict dress code, which will be supplied to you once you are hired, which has been designed to align with our ideals and also
to take into account the sensibilities of our customers and their clientele.
The appearance of our employees is one of the keys to our success. Because they are required to fill varying rolls--as Matrix
representative, as customer service or sales representative for the store they are working in, as demonstrator of supplier products,
etc.--they must be easily acceptable to a broad range of people and organizations. For that reason, we demand an aire of professionalism in
both appearance and demeanor. We have also found that it is easier for our employees to create the most productive frame of mind when they
are literally changing their appearance in order to go to work. In all, following a set of appearance standards results in happy customers,
happy employees, and a happy employer.
Background Check
All of our applicants must also agree to submit to a background check. Although we respect your right to privacy, we are also aware of
the grave harm that can be done either to our company or to one of our client companies if we ever hire someone with a scandalous past. Not
everything that might show up on a background check will automatically result in disqualification, so if there are blotches on your past,
please let us know during the interview process so that we can discuss them and will be aware of them--finding out that applicants have
tried to hide negative information from us is never a good thing.
