Asked by DesignAfficiando
Should it depend on my experience? I have used a cash register in other jobs before but it's been a few years, Besides, every cash register is worked differently.

Your experience may make you more desirable but when it comes to part time employment all you are going to find is minimum wage if they offer you more thank your lucky stars. In today's economy the employers in driver seat. Remember this it a buyers market and you are not the buyer

A:
experience? take what they give you... it probably isn't negotiable anyhow, as there are usually 500 people waiting behind you for jobs like that.
Answered by Miloo

A:
Well depending on whether or not you have had a job before, you can put your most recent salary or you could put 50 cents to a dollar more if you like. It really just depends on the store. They will let you know in an interview if they can't pay you what you are asking and they will most likely tell you then what they do pay! Good Luck! :)

A:
Most of the time that salary is not negotiable. I would ask what they pay for that position.
Answered by Move on

A:
Don't ask. You are looking for a part time job. It's more important you explain how you can help the employer. The hourly wage....not salary will eventually come up, most likely by the employer. In this market most employers will not let you set the rate.
Answered by Peter F

A:
Between 6 and 7 dollars an hour. Too many people are out of work today and times will get tougher... If you really want the job take what is offered but not under 5.50 ...what is min. wage where you live..take it alot of others that really need the job will take it.
Answered by KAT

A:
When you accept a part time job, you are at their mercy. Whatever the job pays, that is what you will get. Some part-time jobs will pay a little extra because the company is not paying benefits for you, just salary. I would say the job will pay the standard minimum wages for that area of town. If you want a part-time job that pays more than the standard wages, apply at In and Out Burger.
