Working/Gaining Experience?

[silver eclipse]

I'm starting my junior year of college and in about a year I'll be applying to optometry school. Right now, I have very little experience in the field.

I got an interview for a retail eye store and was wondering if it's beneficial to work there even if it's only as a front-desk/retail ("with possible cross training in the lab" according to them)?

Would appreciate any other tips to gain experience in the field. Thanks!

I think any experience is better than no experience.
