Come work at Operation Book Support if you answered "yes" to any of these.
Who We Are:
Operation Book Support is a private, veteran-owned small business whose mission is to raise money for organizations in San Diego through online book sales. We partner with over 65 libraries, thrift stores, and non-profits in our local community and abroad to help fund their missions. We're a small business with a big impact. Please watch our 2-minute video on our website www.opbooksupport.com
The Job:
Put simply, you'll be processing online orders. Picking, packing, and shipping our books, DVDs, video games, music CD's, and audiobooks. Come in, put your music on, and have fun but work hard. This job is fast-paced and you'll work independently. This job is very physical, you'll be moving up to 50 lb. boxes everyday (getting paid and getting exercise!). No more forcing awkward conversations with co-workers or dealing with angry patrons. No more wearing dorky uniforms or having an overbearing boss micromanage you. Simply process your required number of orders and you'll do great!
Who this job is NOT for:
- Don't apply if you need to work with a team and socialize. You'll mostly be alone while you work.
- Don't apply if you like interacting with customers and doing customer service. There's none of that here. We're an online bookstore only.
- Don't apply if you need an overly professional and politically correct environment. We like to have fun and joke here. Small business with a relaxed culture.
- Don't apply if you're not highly motivated and enjoy working at a fast pace. You won't last long here. Our team is fast and efficient. "A-Players" only!
- Don't apply if you're not ok with a very physical job that requires you to stand all day, move heavy boxes, and ship out orders at a fast pace. Yes, you might break a sweat (and get a great workout!)
Location: You'll process orders at our facility located near San Diego State University ( SDSU ).

Application Process (EXTREMELY IMPORTANT): The first thing we look at is the One-Way Video Interview through indeed that should be sent to you as you apply. If you don't complete that, we won't even see your application. Don't worry, it's only 3 questions and it's just about who you are! Super easy. We're looking for clear communication skills, someone who is fun to work with, and good energy. As a small business, good vibes are everything for us.
