Unlike most retailers, we’re really close to our customers. And by close, we’re talking secret-handshakes and hidden tattoos. OK, not really. But we’re open to implementing those if you think it might be helpful. Sorry, I digress. We’re close to our customers – in fact we like to think of ourselves as friends to our customers first, and as a retailer second. Really, I mean that. But – and this is a good thing – our workload has now grown beyond our capabilities and we need help keeping up with the ever increasing needs that our über-important customers have, so that we can stay on their good side and not become the “friend that faded away.” You know, like some of those people in college you used to believe you’d be friends with for life? Yeah, you know the ones I’m talking about. Where are they now?

That’s EXACTLY what we’re trying to avoid…and we need your help.

We’re looking for a Customer Service Superstar who is crazy passionate about serving our peeps. Without them, ther’d be no us…and we kind of like being around. Lots of companies talk a good game when it comes to service. We’d rather let our actions do the talking.

Dormbuys is an e-commerce retailer committed to providing anything and everything for college students living in the dorms. Our offices and distribution facilities are located in Eastern Jefferson County (Middletown). So what makes one qualified to be our Customer Service Superstar? Well, we need a quick learning, organized, detail-oriented superstar who has a real passion for helping people. You have to be able to communicate with the team you’ll be working with, as well as with customers via phone, email, hand-written note and telekinesis. A little bit of work in a warehouse can’t scare you…nor can the dogs that roam the office (who are fun, uplifting and friendly of course). We need a self-starter who doesn’t need someone looking over their shoulder all day. We’re not into the whole micro-managing thing. You really need to be a juggling fiend capable of handling day-to-day responsibilities as well as some longer-term projects. To top it off, if you’re socially media-ish savvy, that’d be an extra-special added bonus. Oh…and you definitely must possess a “do whatever it takes” attitude, as we like to think that’s a philosophy that has helped us grow so fast.

So there you have it. If you’re all about finding yourself in a place that combines hard work and lot’s of fun, drop us a note with “Customer Service Superstar” in the subject line, and send us anything that you think might convince us you’re perfect. You can email us at letsdothis@dormbuys.com. And if you happen to have a secret handshake of course, by all means, bring it on.

I’m sitting here on a Friday afternoon wondering where spontaneity could have possibly gone.  It wasn’t that long ago that I found myself on the beaches of Key West after nothing more than a 4 hour notice and a reasonably reliable source of transportation.  Today, I found out that my cousin is fighting in Nashville, [...]

We get it. You’re looking to make a little extra cash, want a cool job with a great company, but aren’t looking for the typical 40-hour work week. As you landed on Craigslist, Monster, Career Builder and every other job search website out there, you were sure you would find exactly what you were looking [...]

Dormbuys.com had the awesome opportunity to work with some of our neighbors who were preparing to go on a mission trip to Ethiopia.  Take a look at the letter one of the missionaries sent us last week!

Dear Dormbuys,
Thank you so much for your generous donations to our September mission trip to Ethiopia which [...]

Mom, where do care packages come from?
Care packages originated in Yugoslavia during World War II after the Slavics, who were suffering through severe food shortages, called for the support of the United States. The US quickly responded to Yugoslavia’s wishes by sending food and medical supplies in tins. However, one package arrived without any labels. [...]

Check this out. We heard from a friend of our friend’s cousin, who was told by her sister’s brother’s roommate, that his friend’s freshman year roommate had the most horrific college introduction ever. EV-ER. And after hearing the story, we just had to give him props for making it through.

My senior year of high [...]

We love the gang at College Humor.  If you haven’t checked out their site, give it a look at http://www.collegehumor.com/.  This is their twist on the Verve Pipe’s famous song….with a college lunch room twist.

I hit the office this morning and picked up the new Kid Cudi Album on iTunes.  I’ve been excited about this release for a while, as I look at Cudi as bringing something new to Hip Hop. As I hit play on the first track, it ended with a soliloquy known as the Cudi Anthem. [...]

It seems like all of the lists out there are designed to tell you what TO do.  We understand college is a rebellious time and we don’t want to rattle off a bunch of stuff you should be doing.  So, in the spirit of all good things are in list form, we’re here to tell [...]

It’s not the same as your room at home; and more than the fact that it’s cramped and small, it’s the fact that you have to share it with someone else that sort of bugs you. Your college dorm room could end up being your favorite place for the four years you live on campus, [...]
