Swarley Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 My sore finger has now been confirmed as broken! I now have to have a lollipop stick taped to it for 3 weeks. Makes day to day tasks slightly harder but at least I have a good excuse for missing the toilet bowl! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's half an hour of your life that you have to spend speaking correctly and thinking before you do so. If you can't do that, you don't deserve a job. You will be just fine. Deep breath as you head in the door and away you go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm naturally pretty confident but I'm pretty nervous. I love Zara as well so it'd be fucking brilliant if I worked there. If I get the job I'll find out who you are (C.Muir) and buy you a drink next season at a Clyde game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ffcsam Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 Gtid, some wee hints for the interview. Arrive around ten mins early. If you smoke, don't have one about an hour beforehand. Speak clearly and concisely Take proof of id (some companies may ask u for it) Also, they will ask you if you have any questions to ask them. NEVER say no!!! Ask about possible career advancement, training opportunities etc. Keep your answers short and relevent, don't waffle. Finally, be yourself All the best and good luck 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Phoenix Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 First job interview in 2 hours time! Shitting myself, hope to God I get it - fed up being skint. The fact I need to dress quite smart for it as well makes me even more nervous. Sound advice from Mrs M. May I add, make eye contact with the person asking you the question. Always think when answering a question based on your personal experience - What (you did), Why (you did it), What (was the outcome). Always try to use "I" rather than "We" - it's you they want to employ not your pals! Good luck. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamboMikey Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 "Hello is this Mr Lib?" "Yes, who is this?" "My name is <name> I am calling on behalf of Consumer Survey _____" "Why?" "We are conducting a survey about your area, shall we start now?" "Okay" "Can I just confirm that your postcode is <postcode> and your address is <address>" "No that's wrong" "Oh my God, that is not your postcode?" "No." "What is our postcode?" "I do not have a postcode" "Where do you live?" "I do not live. I am dead" "... you are dead?" "Yes" " *laughs* nervously" "This is no laughing matter. I am dead. I find your conduct extremely offensive. I wish to speak to your manager" " *laughs* sorry Sir, are you saying you are dead?" "Yes, and I find your conduct thoroughly untactful. I wish to make a complaint to your manager" "Okay goodbye" What the f**k is wrong with you man? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been off work since and i text him to ask how he was but didn't get an answer,It turns out that he was having a heart attack whilst i was talking to him He is only 40 Edited May 19, 2011 by keithgy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 The gas has been switched off for at least four hours now by the useless fuckers trying to fix the problem in the area. Cos it's fine, we don't at all want hot running water or cooked food, continue to proceed at your leisurely pace. If we had less fat manual workers spouting drivel on internet forums this country wouldn't be broke all the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
