Re: Job interview at City
If they give you situation based questions remember to:
Situation, describe the situation
Task or Target, what was the goal or objective
Action, what you did,
Result – What happened using specifics and measurements

Re: Job interview at City
It's a group interview that happens downstairs in the shop. You all stand in a circle, introduce yourself and say something about yourself. While all this is happening the managers are taking notes and shit. They never got back to me, good thing really as I got a well paying job (For my age) a few days later.

Re: Job interview at City
I've not read any of the responses but am sure if you treat this as a regular job interview and give them a serious approach you'll do just great.
Martin Yate (he's British) has written a bunch of widely acclaimed books you'll find down your local library all about job interviews, techniques, and job cover letters. If you really want to impress them I'd grab yourself a copy of this and take an hour or two reviewing some of the main question topics he covers that you may get asked. If you use his way of answering/approaching things, you'll hit 'em for six - a bit like we did to ManUre at Old Trafford! and there's no way anyone else will be getting that job ahead of you.

in which case you're going to want to prepare ahead of time to wow them with your answers and devastate the rest of 'em who are stood there waiting to answer after you!

Get Yate.

P.s sorry if this is in the wrong forum didn't know quite where to put it.

Re: Job interview at City
It was an hour, tops. There was about 15-20 in my group but there were a few positions up for grabs. I forgot to mention that towards the end you have to pick any 3 items from the shop for a fan and justify why you picked them.Ash said:What then? Seems like it will be quite quick!
