Update from HM
*We expect candidates to have strong Retail domain and POS experience, including a clear understanding of POS workflows and automation scenarios.
Resumes should focus less on tools and processes and more on key strengths, project contributions, and accomplishments and highlight the challenges they addressed, solutions implemented, and measurable impact achieved.
The resume should be limited to two pages highlighting the above.*
