They want you more than you want them. Think what you have to offer them and remember the average questions these days are - basically just common sense. Think then answer. What most companies want are honest people who want to work not skive. |

But by the same token Karen - look at the nonsense Elaine went through in her phone interview with ScotRail. Some people seem to just want to give you a hard time and play games. My personal opinion is to just walk away from situations like that. It can only lead to more stress and a hard time later on. Hopefully ASDA are different and you get a sensible and positive interview. |

What problems with Scotrail? I must have missed that. |

Elaine had a phone interview and they basically played silly beggars and tried to trick her and catch her out. Most counterproductive for them and demoralising for her and any other experiencing that, I'd say!!!  |

But thinking back to Scotrail Elaine, try to get into the mindset of modern interviewing techniques. It's not enough for you to say that you are e.g. customer-focused, they will want you to give examples (evidence, they'd call it). So, just from bits you have posted (and which I remember  ), you've sourced training classes for a wayward dog, which wasn't even your customer, and you've gone out of your way to help the postman-attacking cat. Keep thinking along those lines (try to get non-pet examples too). You must have done stuff 'over and above' to help old folks in the Post Office?So, to stop rambling. Think of your strengths, qualities you'd be happy to put on a CV, then think of examples. Even little things like working beyond your hours - it all counts. Good luck |

Thankyou to every one for their advise and their confidence in me. I think the job is mine, if I want it. The job would be delivery driver, delivering shopping to people in and around the Aberdeen area. They are going to make out a proposal for me and then try to get me in for a weekend training. The weekend training is gonna be a hard one to swing as I only get about one weekend off a month and I dont think I get paid for doing the training event. Will wait and see what the proposal says. I came home quite excited about it but Graham has managed to put a dampner on that by saying he doesnt think I'd like and or be good at the job. |
