[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sales often requires good EQ. 
Retail is the answer.  [/quote]

Have worked in retail, and this is definitely not the right answer. Sure, you could get a job working in retail. But unless you are management, that’s going to pay about $30,000 a year. And management in retail can be very difficult, and involves a lot of problem-solving that you have to be pretty smart to do. Handling things like inventory and staffing and visuals can be more than a little bit intellectually challenging.[/quote]

I worked in a retail clothing store at Tyson’s for a while. We had a terrible time hiring enough people because corporate wouldn’t let us hire (or even interview) anyone who didn’t score really highly on an online aptitude/personality test that you had to take in order to apply. I think there were three levels of scores, unacceptable, acceptable, and excellent. And corporate would only let us hire people who scored “excellent.” And we never had enough people, even though we had a bunch of applications, because we had to say no to anyone who didn’t score excellent on the darn thing.[/quote]
