Is Dorota Kettleburn-Ajayi a real person

No. She is invented for this page, and so are Marlstone Food Market and Byerly Convenience Stores. The figures show a shape and describe nobody.

What is worth saying on a cashier's résumé

Transactions a week, customers a shift, the shortfall record, and what you were trusted with beyond the till. Those four turn a job everybody assumes they understand into a record.

Is a zero shortage claim credible

Bounded, yes. A drawer balanced to the penny on every shift names the unit and the period, and till shortfalls across the team cut from nine a month to one names the mechanism beside the result, which is why both read as facts rather than boasts.

What did the checker score it

98 out of 100, re-measured on 25 September 2026, with achievement quality 3 points short and readable volume 3 points short. The arithmetic is 100 × 30% for parseability + 100 × 30% for completeness + 94 × 40% for content. The writing check scored it 95, which is 91 of the 96 points that applied to it.

Should age-restricted sales be mentioned

Yes, in the skills row. It is a legal responsibility a store manager has to be able to trust, and it is a filter term in a great many retail postings.

Till work is the job most often written as a single line on a résumé, and it is the one where a manager most needs a reason to choose one applicant over forty. This example is written out in full so you can read what that reason looks like, then put through the tools here so you can see what a parser takes from it. The candidate is invented.

Fourteen hundred transactions a week is a fact

One thousand four hundred transactions a week on the main tills, with the drawer balanced to the penny on every shift. Till shortfalls across the team from 9 a month down to 1 after the handover count was rewritten and every float was checked. Those two lines describe accuracy under volume, which is the entire job and is almost never written down.

The shortfall record is the important half. Anybody can serve customers; a store manager is choosing between people who can and cannot be trusted with a drawer, and only one of those is stated on most applications.

The lines beyond the till are the promotion lines

Training twelve new starters on the till and the age-restricted sales policy until each one worked alone inside two weeks. Supervising eight self-service tills through the Saturday peak and clearing 200 customer interventions a shift. Handling sixty refunds and exchanges a week under the store policy, with three referred to a manager in two years.

Each of those is something a supervisor asked this person to do because the till work was reliable. On a page for a supervisor's job, those three lines are the application.

Skills for a cashier résumé, grouped

Dorota's skills group into the till, customers and store. Till: till operation, cash handling, self-service support, refunds and exchanges. Customers and rules: customer service, age-restricted sales, loss prevention. Store: stock replenishment, delivery checking, training new staff. A store manager reads age-restricted sales and loss prevention as trust lines.

Keep the groups short. A cashier résumé works best when the reader sees the whole page in a glance. Set this up under Skills in the free résumé builder; one list works too.

From sales assistant to senior customer assistant

A first retail job proves reliability: shifts covered, a till that balanced, customers served. The Byerly roles show that. A customer assistant adds volume: transactions a week and the accuracy behind them.

A senior customer assistant adds the lines beyond the till: new staff trained, deliveries checked, a queue kept moving at peak times. Those are the promotion lines. The first-job guide covers writing a first shop role.

How it reads and scores

The import review reads 3 roles, 1 degree, 2 languages and 10 skills before anything reaches the editor. The ATS checker scored it 98 out of 100, re-measured on 25 September 2026, with achievement quality 3 points short and readable volume 3 points short: 100 × 30% for parseability, 100 × 30% for completeness and 94 × 40% for content. The writing check scored it 95, which is 91 of the 96 points that applied here, and the five it did not award are the tense rule. How our examples are made explains the import review and the scoring behind these figures.

What this example leaves off

No photograph, no list of personal qualities and no reference details. A store manager is reading for the customer volume, the takings and the shortage record, and each additional element pushes those down the page.

Every short assignment is left off as well. Two solid roles with real figures beat six three-month placements listed in full, and where the short roles matter they can be grouped under one line with honest dates.

What to change for your own

Change the store type. Supermarket, convenience, department store, pharmacy counter and petrol forecourt all use this shape with different responsibilities. Keep the shape: three dated roles, five verb-first lines under each, a figure in every line. Then put in your own transaction counts, customer counts, shortfall record and the tasks you were trusted with.

Keep the languages if you have them, because in a mixed neighbourhood a manager reads that line as a service improvement. The design gallery holds 37 layouts, and the retail manager example, the waiter example and the bartender example show where this shape leads.
