 The company offers many positions based on where you are from and each position has a job description and it says that they give on-the-job training when the worker starts.
Job Description of a Key Leader at Lulu-lemon:
The Key Leader is a key part of the Store Leadership Team and as such supervises the retail floor and takes initiative, delegates work and provides feedback to the team, follows up on outstanding issues and is a star “go to” person.  Under the supervision and direction of the Store Manager, the position assists in any leadership duties that arise, thereby working directly with the Store Manager & Assistant Manager, as well as directly supervising the community leader and educator in the stores. The Key Leader also works closely with the Store Leadership Team in supporting the general store operation function.
The Key Leader jobs sounds like the best job offered at the moment because your in charge of most things going on in the store and the rest of the jobs offered are behind the scenes and jobs that are not that interesting.

 Kellogg Company
 Dave and Busters

 Google Inc.

The best company that I would look into investing in is Netflix.  The company has dropped down to near its low at $379.40 so I can buy it low  and hopefully it soon will go up.

The Body Shop-They comply with the very strict requirements of the Humane Cosmetics Standard. This standard was set by the British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection (BUAV) and is regarded as the highest standard for animal welfare in the cosmetics industry. They audit us regularly to ensure we comply. The Body Shop also audit ourselves. Every two years they check our policies and compliances to ensure they're adhering to the latest animal-welfare guidelines.

Starbucks-It happens millions of times each week - a customer receives a drink from a Starbucks barista - but each interaction is unique. Just one hand reaching over the counter to present a cup to another outstretched hand. But it's a connection.  They make sure everything we do honors that connection and every place that we touch, they tried to make it a little better than we found it. 

Tom's Shoes-Blake Mycoskie founded the company after his trip to Argentina when a little kid who he became friends with had no shoes. Every pair of Tom's Shoes bought another goes to someone in need of them.  They giver 10 million pairs of shoes top over 60 countries.

As if the price of a pair of yoga pants ($98!) from this  Canadian company was not scandalous enough, the company had to recall them when customers complained the pants were see-through. Lululemon   founder Chip Wilson only made things worse when he blamed the sheerness of the fabric on the size of women's thighs. He has resigned from his chairman position in December 2013.

I hate when there is a shortage of a clothing item on a online store and you cant order it so you have to take a trip to the mall.
