About American Eagle

We are a leading lifestyle apparel brand known for our incredible denim, comfortable basics, and inclusive store culture. Our mission is to ensure that our stores are packed with fresh, exciting merchandise every single day. The Stock Associate (Merchandising Specialist) is the engine of the backroom, turning massive truck deliveries into sales floor-ready products in record time.

As an entry-level Stock Associate, you will be trained to unbox, security-tag, and fold merchandise at lightning speed. You will serve as the operational backbone, delivering the signature daily inventory turns that set American Eagle apart in the apparel retail industry. This is an active, physical role perfect for those who love working with their hands, listening to music in the back, and avoiding the cash register.

Comprehensive Responsibilities

• Ticketing & Tagging: Quickly apply hard security tags to denim and high-value garments, ensuring all price tickets are clearly visible according to company standards.
• Rack Building: Fold processed apparel efficiently on rolling Z-racks and carts, organizing by size and wash so the floor team can push it out seamlessly.

• Salary: Competitive base wage of $15.00 to $17.50 per hour.

• Health Coverage: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision packages available starting after a brief introductory period.

Requirements & Qualifications

• Must be at least 18 years of age upon application (due to baler operation).
• No prior retail or warehouse experience is required—we thrive on training people to be fast and efficient.
• Must possess an excellent work ethic and the physical stamina to stand in one place, bend, and lift up to 40 pounds repeatedly throughout the shift.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, high-volume backroom environment.
