I just got a group interview and there are spots for Friday or Saturday. I'm free for any.

Does it really matter which day and time I pick?

Thanks

i'd go with the friday one, they'll be in a good mood for the coming weekend =]

or i guess any day is fine.

Hey, just finished the interview and got back home, we might have seen each other already.

What do you think of it? hehe, it's really a much nicer experience than the one I had earlier this year with Coles. People in my table were all lovely and nice, hope everyone all the very best~~

Hi there,

Just relax and be yourself, enjoy the whole experience of meeting new ppl. The recruiters and assessers were all very nice, do not need to be stressed too much.

Not many ppl were wearing suits today, mostly business pants with shirts and tie. You can also bring a thin jumper in case it's get cooler in the late afternoon

Hey i just got back home too.

This is what happened...

Everyone enters the room and sits at one of the tables. Each table consisted of about 6-8 people. Some myer person then talks to you about myer and all the staff introduce themselves. Then in you small groups you each introduce yourselves and talk a bit about yourself. After that theres a bit more talking from the myer spokesperson. Some forms/paperwork is then filled by all the candidates. After that, 3 activities are done within your table.

Activity 1:

An old couple enter the toys department....how would you greet them?
You find out theyre looking for presents....what questions would you ask them, how would you sell the products at myer?

Activity 2:

Some type of item is chosen by the mentor at your table. With your group you need to discuss its features and benefits and how you could sell it.

Activity 3:

5 or 6 situations are shown. With you group you need to rank them in most important to leat important.

Overall its pretty easy. Just relax and be yourself. BTW when discussing with your group, there are some people that talk quite and bit and it does get competitive with everyone trying to get a word in. So just try and say you bit, dont talk too much, and dont talk too little.

@ dingfeng...i probably did see you today out of the 60 or so people that were there today lol

@ Inbetweendreams...good luck

Interview went pretty well the people at my table were heaps nice (besides the guy that tried to monopolize the converstaion), although there seemed to be alot of people there so i think only about 4-6 people out of like 48 people will get a job which is a bit dissapointing but what can you do

Apprently this year, Myer received 5000 applications nationwide. And of this they will choose 1000 staff. So that's a 1/5 chance.

 

[Omie Jay]

me, mum, and sis applied.

mums got the interview, no reply to me or sis yet

>:-[

i currently work at the castle hill store.... i've been there for nearly a year. And to answer those questions about when your starting they understand you have exams and from my experience most of the new ppl/christmas casuals started around when i started which was after exams/end of november... your not really needed before then. and then come halfway thru january/after stocktake thats when u guys finish and i get more space again!
