About us:

Trunk Club (www.trunkclub.com) was started to solve a simple problem – shopping for clothes in stores or online just doesn’t work for most guys. It’s overwhelming, inconvenient, and takes way too much time. With Trunk Club, guys discover awesome clothes that are perfect for them without ever having to go shopping. We combine top brands, expert service, and unparalleled convenience to deliver a highly personalized experience that helps guys look their best.

We start by scouring the planet for the very best in men’s apparel, curating an ever-evolving assortment of pieces from our favorite designers. With the best inventory anywhere as our point of departure, a Stylist on our team hand-selects a trunk of items based on each customer’s needs and tastes. They keep what they love and send the rest right back to us, at no cost to them.

Our team is based in Chicago, IL and has grown to over 1000 employees since starting out in December 2009. We recently joined the Nordstrom family and have locations in Washington, DC, New York City, Dallas, TX, and Los Angeles, CA.

We are a close knit and lean team focused on finding the best talent and providing the best possible experience for all prospective candidates. In a sales driven organization, we are responsible for sourcing Stylists/Sales Representatives who will make an impact, build a book of business, and thrive in a performance based environment. Close to 70% of our hires are referrals or self-sourced candidates, which means we are highly proactive in nature and constantly thinking of fresh recruiting ideas. We act as business partners to hiring managers within each clubhouse to assist in all of their recruiting needs.
