As a member of Amazon warehouse staff, you will be in charge of your customers’ orders. Before you check each new order, the goods have to first be stored in the warehouse, so make sure you receive the new inventory. After that, you can check new orders, find the required goods, pack them, and send them on their merry way. This part of the job may include some heavy lifting because you and your colleagues will have to load boxes for shipment.
In order to work in an Amazon warehouse, you will have to appreciate the sheer size and complexity of it. Some orders might be heavy, so lifting boxes shouldn’t be a problem for you. Physical fitness overall should be your priority for this job as very often it is required to walk, bend, or reach. Even if you are not at your best, soon you will become.
Being physically fit is not the only requirement/ability you will gain. If you haven’t already mastered it, you will also learn to operate different warehouse equipment, and even receive training for operating some specific machinery. By using lifts, pickers, or carts, you will also find yourself high above the ground (some goods might be placed on top shelves), so not having fear of heights can also come in handy.
