So I'm applying to my local independant record store that I visit almost everyday. Its small, but a great place called The Electric Fetus. My best friend is the music buyer though and they need one more music person. He put my name in but its a very tough job to get. Anyways, I'm very well educated in music so no problem there, but on the application there is a question asking to list "any special training or skills or experiences" that would be helpful as an employee. And having no prior sles experience I am not sure what to write. I just need some good advice what to put for someone ith no experience in the field. Thanks a lot for any help

Tell them you have a great understanding for music and you value other peoples opinions. You understand that many people like many different types of music and you can relate to it all.

Tell them you have absolutely no experience but are willing to do whatever it takes, work long hours, get shafted (in terms of shifts), etc. etc.

He is actually one of my favorite posters ever. Do yourself a favor and check out his posting history. He wrote a poem once that was just sublime.
