Job interview at City

when asked questions about what you
might do in certain situations try and use examples of similar situations you have been in with successful outcomes - don't just say i'd do this or that, prove you've already done it

i'd ring about dresswear but that's just me-would show you're organised

If you've got a season ticket, wear the badge that came with it last summer.

Its unlikely to be a seasonal position ?, so maybe not wise to tell them you will be quitting in a few months to go back to Uni. Always easier to make an impression then let them know. Much more likeley to get the job and be invited back.
Also have some questions to ask the interviewer, I've previously written these down so I dont forget to ask what I need to know - shows you are prepared and organised. If it's going well, throw in a light hearted one, like 'Could you confirm that no one I may work with if succesful supports Utd'.
Good Luck. Would love to work at City in any capacity.

Re: Job interview at City

I agree with comments about dressing formally and I would wear a jacket unless it is really hot.

Also, if someone offers to shake hands, do it firmly, not like you're holding a limp piece of lettuce and as already been mentioned, look the person in the eye when shaking his / her hand.

And the best of luck. I hope you get the job.

I should add that if anyone official is reading this and suitably impressed that I dont come cheap. Although I am willing to fuck off my agent and his ridiculous fees.

Definitely the shirt and tie option for dress code. As has been mentioned it is better to be over dressed than under. I'm assuming this would be a customer facing role so you need to enthusiastic, friendly and confident. Think of examples of when you have had to maybe deal with awkward people/customers and how you have dealt with them in a previous role if you can. Obviously if you dealt with it by smacking the person in the face I would try to come up with a different answer but hopefully that is of some assistance.

Look on the bright side, if you make a total balls up of the interview they might offer you a job in the ticket office.

Re: Job interview at City

Handed in a CV to the Citystore in town last week for at least the 15th time, 20minutes later got a call back asking me to attend an interview on Thursday, very excited about it and hope I get it as it would be brilliant part time until I go back to college and then to carry on with it from there, anybody got any tips I have a lot of experience but not so much with interviews and also I wasn't told to dress formal or not so I'm wondering what to wear? P.s sorry if this is in the wrong forum didn't know quite where to put it.

Jeans and a casual top always go down well!!! :-)

F.F.Sake mate. First impressions. Suited and booted. You never get a 2nd chance to make a first impression. Good luck mate
