Would you like to work for a trusted name in retail and fashion? Do you like providing customer service and making each customer feel special? Are you interested in a work-at-home job with good pay and benefits? Well, then a familiar name to many—Neiman Marcus—might be what you are looking for.
Unfortunately, the work from home positions tend to be location-specific so that you can train onsite. The locations vary.
What is Neiman Marcus Direct Work From Home?
Since the first retail store opened in Dallas, Texas in 1906, Neiman Marcus has been a trusted name in retail known for their high-end décor, fashion, and other items.
With the work from home program, you would be taking both web and catalog orders for their customers. You would be using phone calls, live chats, and email to manage the customers' accounts.
While you are allowed to work from home, it is an employee position with benefits. Even the Neiman Marcus DWFH takes customer service very seriously, and considers its employees the “Cornerstone” of its business. Cornerstone is what they call their production mentoring program.
