Added to the 6,300 new jobs expected, this makes for an estimated total of 12,590 job opportunities through 2005. One of the reasons for the expected growth is that sales have been found to go up when Demonstrators are used. Also, there has been growth in retail trade due to the rise in California's population. Many job openings in the next few years will also be created by the need to replace workers who leave their jobs. Most employers report it is not difficult to find persons qualified to do this work.
Most contracts provide for a pension contribution.
Department stores have a benefits package for permanent employees who work at least 20 hours per week. Demonstrators should have enthusiastic, outgoing personalities and enjoy working with the public. They are expected to be well groomed. They must be able to organize their work and fill out the required paper work with very little supervision. Employers that hire Demonstrators for a specific line of products may prefer a person who does creative cooking or has other skills that help show off a product.
