I want to apply for the show bag hall jobs, but I'm having trouble finding places to apply online. So far I've only been able to apply to Bensons (and I got an interview with them :spin: ), but I know there's heaps more distributors out there. (Hunter Leisure, Chicane marketing etc.)
I'm not too late, am I? I'm sure I applied later than this last year.
Anyone else applied?

I might apply. The applications on the Sydney Easter Show site are still open but you've got to work a minimum of 8 or 10 shifts.

I applied last year, but didn't get it, but I reeaaaallyyy wanna do it this year.
I got an interview with Bensons, and I applied for Hunter as well. There's no where near as many job ads this year, and it's all happening much later.

I know that there are at LEAST two other distributors, and I have their contact details, but I don't know if I should wait for an ad first.

btw, does anyone know what the Benson's interview is like? is it group, or individual?

Yeah, it's probably too late especially since I've received invitations for interviews for both of them, but you never know. We usually apply for these jobs early February, but this year the Show is two weeks later, so a part of me is still waiting for other distributors to advertise for staff. On the other hand, I emailed a distributor called The Promotions Factory, and they said they had already hired everyone they needed.

Oh btw, I saw an ad to sell balloons at the Show, if anyone's interested, just search it up on Seek.

I got an email from Hunter Leisure with interview dates! I've set mine for April 2nd. They could be accepting more applications, for any of those who still want to apply?

I actually ended up turning down my interview with Bensons and didn't bother applying to Hunter Leisure. Too many things I'd rather be doing in the holidays and I don't really need/want the money badly enough to give it up. Best of luck to everyone else!

Whoooooooooooo! I got a job at Extended Sampling, they do Supre, Total Girl etc. So I turned down my Hunter interview, so maybe they'll fill my spot. I dunno.
