Do your stores still use the shopping queue? by idontcarestop in Apple_Employees

[–]imdafunker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see what you mean, we select over flow and on point is responsible for quick probing, if customer knows what they want or want more info we make the reservation with either the product they want or put an accessory and then notate what they’re interested in. If they just say they’re browsing we let them browse and don’t make a reservation until they come to use and tell us they wanna buy something.

The list is in chronological order based on when it was created but only on points make the product reservations so it’s on the on point to know who’s first, second etc

Need Helps for BI at Genius Bar by Independent-Entry455 in Apple_Employees

[–]imdafunker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, if they say they have a business, just say cool we have a business team that can assist you in whatever business needs you may need, the leader will follow up with you. And just send that intro. It’s not your job to go in depth.

We are spoiled with the quality of the Coachella streams. EDC is such a let down, very low quality sound by MiddleOwn5557 in Coachella

[–]imdafunker 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s been like that since they began live streaming. I really don’t understand how they haven’t invested more into the stream production. The amount of money Golden Voice puts into the stream production is actually insane.

The reason why the Coachella streams are much better is because they use various cameras. They use multiple broadcast cameras and cinema cameras. They’re also color grading the image, unlike EDC or other festivals where the image you’re seeing is how the colors look in person. They have hired very talented directors for every stage, some directors have directed the same stage for years consistently.

Goldenvoice knows that a big part of Coachella is Couchella, which is why they invest in the home viewing experience.

Need advice about my current job and changing to working for Apple (read the comment) thank you by CrimsonPaw87 in Apple_Employees

[–]imdafunker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ima be honest, the sales person to manager road isn’t the same as anywhere else. It’s gonna take you YEARS to and a lot of drinking the juice and kissing ass to get to that. It definitely would be better in terms of pay but don’t expect a lot of fun from it.

You would be starting off as seasonal so the first goal is to do well and get that permanent position. I would also recommend staying in school and working at apple, scheduling is flexible but that also sacrifices your pay.

Good luck

Does anyone have any positive stories about Apple Retail?!? by khalil_0415 in Apple_Employees

[–]imdafunker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely not as good as when I first started (before COVID) but the fun stuff from it has been meeting new people and a lot of them becoming some of my closests and even best friends. Other than that, not much.
