Before working at Renewal by Andersen I worked at Walmart as an overnight lead stocker, training new hires on stocking the areas I excelled in, in an efficient and timely manner. Training at Walmart involved showing new associates how to stock, and clean efficiently while stocking, showing associates how to make cardboard bales and discarding them outside properly.
