Job Description
As a Warehouse Associate at Trove Brands, you will coordinate the receiving, preparation, and shipping of product. You’ll play an integral role in the efficiency of our inbound and outbound supply chain.
But that’s not all.
You’ll become part of the Trove Brands family, which means being a part of a fun, fast-paced, and team-focused work culture. We work hard, and we play just as hard. We have the facilities for it, too—like our state-of-the-art fitness center, yoga studio, basketball/pickleball/volleyball court, and golf simulator. We host fitness classes, team-building activities (think pickleball, volleyball, and dodgeball tournaments), wellness challenges, and more.
Once you’ve worked up an appetite working and working out, you’ll enjoy our onsite marketplace with subsidized food and drinks, monthly catered lunches, and company-wide birthday treats (and with a company of 180+ team members and growing, there are bound to be treats a few times each week.)
You’re sure to love the culture at Trove, where entrepreneurial thinking is encouraged and you and your colleagues share an eagerness to learn. Your hard work will be recognized and you’ll feel that your contributions matter. You’ll be surrounded by kind, creative, interesting people with a zest for life—which is perfect, since you’re one, too. At Trove, we’re big on creating lasting friendships and making work feel less like work and more like a great way to spend the day.
Career-wise, your role will be a starting point, with plenty of potential to learn and grow. We’ll support you with coaching, mentoring, personal development, cross training, and leadership opportunities. You’ll benefit from twice yearly pay increase reviews and structured career ladders. You’ll never be bored, because we have plenty to do and it’s certainly fast paced; you’ll also enjoy a reasonable work/life balance (unlike many warehouse jobs, our schedule is primarily M-F during standard business hours). We even offer some flexibility with student schedules.
Yes, you’ll find all that in an extremely clean, well-organized environment that’s flooded with natural light, and filled with team members dedicated to workplace safety.
Now that we’ve caught your attention, here’s a bit more about what this particular role entails.
As a Warehouse Associate, you’ll be expected to be a leader in all aspects of the Fulfillment Team's job duties. You’ll apply your relentless drive and strong work ethic to encourage solid production numbers from yourself, as well as from others. While every role at Trove Brands is critical to our successful functioning as a whole, your specific responsibilities will include:
• Direct the general fulfillment of orders by example
• Strategize inbound receiving procedures
• Lead varying warehouse team projects, ensuring maximum group efficiency
• Manage warehouse organization, general cleanliness, and safety procedures
• Verify outbound shipments and coordinate documents to guarantee vendor compliance
Qualifications
We’re looking for team members who are adept at contributing their personal expertise to a collaborative work environment. We want people who are ready, willing, and eager to jump into the working world, learn new skills and apply existing ones, and grow in their careers. For this role, we’re specifically looking for someone with the following skills and experience:
• General Warehousing experience
• Strong communication skills

• Keen attention to detail

Among the many benefits our team members enjoy are:
- Full indoor basketball/volleyball court

Thank you Jennifer Kahnweiler for the invitation, I hope I did OK for my first 730 AM live interview ever!
Here are some quick notes:
👉Why did you write a book?
Life is never easy for an introvert, I learned so many things in a hard way.
My initial idea is just to write about the challenges I faced, and share the lessons I learned, so that fellow introverts, especially the young introverts, wouldn’t need to struggle as much as I did.
👉How do you think the Taiwanese/Asian culture supports introverted leaders and also is a challenge for them?
In general, eastern Asian cultures are more introverted, we value solitary, serenity, and deep thinking, which is probably better for the introverted leaders.
However, with globalization, Taiwan’s workplace is already very westernized. For example, in Business Schools, we learn western theories, case studies, and best practices. Students are trained to meet the western standards of a good employee/manager/entrepreneur.
I believe there are both opportunities and challenges for every type of leaders, no matter which culture they’re in.
👉Is remote working good for introverts, or it makes the introverts more isolated?
I’m working remotely, and I’m living in my dream. The best part of working from home is that you have flexibility, and also total control to your own schedule. I’m most productive when I’m working from home because I don’t need to handle all the distractions such as random phone calls or colleagues walking by.
However, I manage my schedule carefully and make sure I still go out to meetings and events, and have physical interactions with people, so that I can still feel connected.
👉What is the most important advice you would give to younger introverts who are want to step more into leadership roles?
1. Embracing who you are,
2. Be strategic, and
3. Expanding the comfort zone gradually.
👉How can we be more inclusive in engaging introverts in our organizations?
This can be done in so many ways, and most of the approaches are surprisingly simple. For example,
-sending out meeting agenda in advance, so the introverts can come prepared;
-setting a “no-meeting” period of time, such as 10AM-12 PM every day, or allowing work-from-home days, these will help the introverts to devote undistracted energy on their tasks.
👉Tell us about the English translation of your book. When is it coming out?
It’s coming out next year. We’re very excited about it, and hope it can add different perspectives for rookie introverts, and introverts in cross-cultural settings.
Join us now with your questions and comments as author Jill Chang, bestselling author in Taiwan describes her successful journey as an introverted leader

These are seven unmissable experiences you need to try in Japan. Marvel at amezaiku (the art of candy crafting) in Tokyo, un-wine-d in a giant pool of vino at the Yunessun Spa Resort in Hakone or check out the Kakunodate Fire and Snow Festival in Akita prefecture.
Home to both futuristic robots and centuries-old shrines, Japan seamlessly blends the old with the new. Here are four experiences you need to cross off your list when visiting.
Around Lunar New Year, in January or February, a snowy corner of Akita prefecture hosts the Hiburi Kamakura Festival, the Fire and Snow Festival. The event, which marks the end of winter and the beginning of spring, involves the welcoming of good spirits, or kami. During the first part of the Hiburi Kamakura Festival, a shrine is constructed in the spirits’ honour, and is decorated with offerings and good luck charms. As the night goes on, a bonfire is lit, and bales of hay and charcoal are tied up with lengths of straw rope. Those participating in the Hiburi dance prepare by wrapping their hair in headscarves and slipping their hands into protective gloves, to stop them from getting singed. Read the full history here: https://theculturetrip.com/asia/japan/articles/hiburi-kamakura-the-festival-of-fire-and-snow/.
Visiting stuffy old temples may not seem like the most exciting activity for kids to do, but there are thousands of fascinating temples and shrines in Japan. Gotokuji, for example, is one of the luckiest temples in Tokyo as it is the birthplace of maneki-neko. Gotokji is home to over 10,000 of these cat figurines, which are believed to bring good luck. A classic maneki-neko looks like a Japanese bobtail cat with a calico coat, but the friendly feline now comes in all types and colours. Typically, one or both paws are raised. They are often called ‘waving cats’ in English because of the position of the paw, but in Japan, this gesture, with the palm facing down, is used to beckon someone towards you. Others see a cat raising a paw to wash itself. For more about cats in Tokyo, read: https://theculturetrip.com/asia/japan/articles/this-is-why-you-need-to-visit-tokyos-cat-town/.
Japan has a reputation for innovation, and that extends to its food and desserts. The traditional candy craft of amezaiku blurs the line between food and art. Using hot, malleable taffy, candy artisans, known as ame shokunin, bring these sugar sculptures to life with colour, shape and texture. To get acquainted with this art form, visit: https://theculturetrip.com/asia/japan/articles/amezaiku-traditional-japanese-sugar-sculpture/.
How about unwinding in a giant pool of wine at Yunessun Spa Resort in Hakone? Yes, you read that right. Merlot lovers have a new way of enjoying their favourite tipple. But if wine isn't your thing, don’t worry. You can take a dip in coffee, green tea or sake instead!

10 MOST INFLUENTIAL ASIAN SUPERHEROES FROM MARVEL & DC
There are a lot of comic book fans out there, and many of them are Asian. Yet historically, superheroes of Asian descent have been a rare thing in the Marvel & DC universes.
With movies like Captain America Civil War, Batman vs Superman and Deadpool already having broken several box office records this year, superhero movies are only getting more popular.
And you know, you have the first female solo superhero film in quite some time coming out in 2017 with DC’s Wonder Woman, and the first black solo superhero film in some time coming out in 2018 with Marvel’s Black Panther. Makes me wonder when we’ll see the first Asian solo superhero film on the big screen.
But we’re a long ways off because first, we actually need a successful and popular Asian superhero in the comics, and thus far, it’s not clear if we even have one.
Well you be the judge.
1. Jubilee (Marvel)
- arguably the most well-known Asian superhero
- a Chinese-American girl born in LA
- X-Men’s youngest member in the early 1990s
2. Shang Chi (Marvel)
- created in the 1970s, a period in time where people were crazy for Bruce Lee and anything Kung Fu related
- the premiere Asian character of the 70s
- born in China
- son & nemesis of the infamous, wealthy international Chinese crime lord Fu Manchu.
- has no superpowers, but is an expert in all forms of martial arts
- unfortunately as stereotypically Asian as you can get
3. Sunfire (Marvel)
- Japan’s premiere superhero
- just like Shang Chi, an Asian character of overt Asian symbolisms.
- real name, Shiro Yoshida
- born to a mother who suffered radiation poisoning (Hiroshima atomic bomb)
- became a mutant possessing solar radiation powers
4. Atom (DC)
- real name, Ryan Choi
- super smart & gets good grades
- can be quite the ladies’ man
- from Hong Kong
- protege of original Atom, Ray Palmer
- the Atom is a super hero who can shrink to a subatomic size (like Ant-Man)
- pretty noteworthy because first time an Asian guy took over the mantle of an existing superhero with an already established fan base
- too bad he only appeared in 78 issues before being killed off by the assassin, Deathstroke
- his death became the subject of racial controversy as he had been one of the few high profile Asian characters in the DC Universe
5. Batgirl (DC)
- real name, Cassandra Cain
- she’s a halfie, with a white dad and a Chinese mom
- adopted by Bruce Wayne, aka Batman.
- under Batman’s watch, she became Batgirl
- some refer to her as the Asian Batgirl
6. Psylocke (Marvel)
- real name is Elizabeth “Betsy” Braddock, originally a blonde haired girl from Essex, Great Britain
- a mutant with vast telepathic and telekinetic powers and a long time X-Man.
- had her soul transferred into the body of a Japanese female ninja
- in X-Men: Apocalypse movie she is played by Olivia Munn (Is this another example of whitewashing in Hollywood?)
7. Ms. Marvel (Marvel)
- real name, Kamala Khan, the second Ms. Marvel who made her debut in 2013
- a Pakistani Muslim teenage girl living in New Jersey from a very traditional Pakistani family.
- is an inhuman (a race of superhumans)
- her power makes her able to stretch her body in unimaginable ways
8. Silk (Marvel)
- real name Cindy Moon, a Korean American girl.
- Spiderman was bitten by a radioactive spider but what we didn’t know was, so did another student
9. Hulk (Marvel)
- in 2015 we were introduced to a Korean Hulk.
- real name, Amadeus Cho, a Korean American
- this new Hulk fights gamma monsters while traveling cross country with his sister Maddy
10. Superman
- DC one upped Marvel by making one of, if not, the most iconic superhero of all time Asian.
- Superman is now Chinese!
- a 17 year old kid from Shanghai named Kenan Kong
- you can imagine the outrage this has caused as ‘superman is supposed to be white’ and American
