Guidance from job tag (Japanese)
入職にあたって、特に学歴や資格は必要とされない。作業についてのマニュアルが用意されているので参照し、上司や先輩の助言を受けながら仕事を覚える。
 入職経路は、新卒者の場合は学校の紹介、中途採用者やパートタイマーの場合には、店頭ポスター、新聞の折り込み広告、ハローワークの紹介、縁故等による入職が多い。
 入職してからレジスターの操作や金銭、商品の扱い方、客への応対の仕方などについて、マニュアルを使ったり、実際の仕事の中で指導員や先輩などから教わる。パートタイマーの場合でも、一般的に3~4日の訓練期間が設けられている。経験を積むと、チーフ(主任)やトレーナー(訓練員)へと昇進する場合もある。
 レジスターの操作には、正確さとスピードが要求されるため、集中力が求められる。また、レジ係の応対によって客の印象が大きく左右されるため、能率よく商品を流し、清潔な身だしなみで、てきぱきと対応することなどが望まれる。
