You could also work for a major department store like Saks and still get a 30% discount in their in store LV and Chanel stores. Also stores like Saks, ect. seem to hire with no experience too, so for a first job it has some perks.

I'm soon to be working at Bloomies. But the one I'm going to be working doesn't have a LV boutique, but the one on Lexington has it. Does anyone know if I'll be eligible for a discount??? :yes:

To be an SA you have to be diplomatic, understand the meaning of the word service, motivated, kind, hardworking, preferably speak several languages, professional, dynamic, and communicative....working in luxury is hard work! Do not underestimate it. It's nothing something you can do as a little job on the side...you have to give 100 percent every day!

I'm not trying to say you're wrong, but the type of SA you just described occurs in about 5% (or less) of all luxury boutiques. This is a complete estimate, but I've shopped in Holts, Ogilvy, Cours de Mont Royal, many types of makeup counters,several high end shopping malls in China.........and I've only encountered 3 people who give 100% of themselves: my SA at Louis Vuitton, another SA at the Lancome counter, and finally my mom. I hate to say this, but the majority of SAs are real snobs.

I agree with you 100%... I mean sure those things you [lvpd] listed are what's expected out of LV SA's, but a majority of the time, those expectations are not fully met. :yucky: Those SA's will still have their noses in the air and look down on others... :shrugs:

I think maybe when they first begin their job at a luxury brand, that's when they're all motivated, 100% customer focused. Maybe after a while you just lose that motivation and hence maybe the snobby-ness? :shrugs:

Yeah, and I agree with CEC that maybe 5% are truly dedicated, no matter how long they've been there.
