The ideal Designated Selling Associate (DSA) Salesperson is passionate about fashion, enjoys working one-on-one with customers and thrives in a sales environment. DSAs drive volume for Nordstrom while championing the brand they represent. DSAs are leaders in customer service, product knowledge education, merchandising, and selling. They drive sales by knowing brand performance, cultivate relationships with both existing and new customers, and educate peers on brand trends, product knowledge, and style.

A day in the life includes:

• Setting and achieving sales goals, for both in-store and digital selling with effective use of selling tools (inclusive of text and social media), and reservations

• Seeking fashion and product knowledge, including attending meetings and trainings, to build your expertise

• Providing valid product feedback to DM to help better the assortment received at your store
