As a family business that has operated for over 80 years, we understand the work/life value that is why we encourage our employees to take two consecutive days off so that they have time for the people around them. We are looking for organized and motivated people who love to help others make their home their own.

Incentive based pay

Most furniture and sales positions treat new hires the same as seasoned veterans, this is where Kaplan's differs from the rest. We understand that new associates may take time to acquire the skills needed in order to be productive that is why we offer different pay structures for new associates that are more forgiving for beginners. Through our training and our close team atmosphere, within three months you will have everything you need to be a top sales associate.

As a retail business, our sales associates are required to work some evenings most holidays and most weekends. In order to provide a balance, we will give two consecutive days off in a week as well as the option for one weekend a month.

Training
