Hi, re your post on myer xmas casuals
I was successful for the 2011 xmas casual (got email yday) and wanted to give you some advice :)
1. at the group interview, make sure you wear a suit, be formal. they highly regard it.
2. make sure when you work in the group, you actively participate and voice out your opinions but do not be the control freak of the group. they want to know how you interact with others, being a good team member is valuable.
3. when you do your introduction to the group- make sure you are different from the other people. give them some background info on you active participation in community service, music, talents
4. honestly, i believe they like vibrant people because they can relate to their customers and hence sell more. make sure when you sell your individual products, as part of one of the activities, be unique. i was the only one on my table who did it as an ad. you got to address everyone on your table, look at them, smile and put on a lovely cheery voice and smile.

goodluck again :)
