Re: Sydney Easter Show

Yeah you apply through the showbag companies themselves...
They most definitely hire school students.:spin:

Re: Sydney Easter Show

It differs from year to year. You usually contact them through the manager of a company. Eg. the easter show website they will give you "lisa's" email to get a job with showbags.

At the current time they have not worked how many employee's are needed etc. and the information has not yet been released (other then voluntary positions.)

At the beginning of March this information is released on the Sydney Royal Easter show website. You then email them your resume and cover letter and if they think you suit the position they will send you an email telling you that you have got an interview and tell you attend a group interview.

I know that it sucks that you have to wait until March or very late February..:spin:

I hope that information helps..:sun:

Re: Sydney Easter Show

I think it would be a good experience, maybe I will try out. Does anyone know the procedure to obtain a job there or is it your regular interview process?

Re: Sydney Easter Show

Is it possible to apply now? I went on the website and I applied for Bensons and Hunter Leisure yesterday but I don't know if they are still accepting people though. I really want the job too ! D:
I just called the companies as well but none of them picked up and then I realised they're not working because it's the weekends LOL.
Does anyone know when they inform you if you have an interview or not? What are the chances of getting in because I have not worked before. But I have done catering and stuff at my school whenever they invite the parents to see their student's work.

Re: Sydney Easter Show

hey guys! i worked at the easter show last year for showbag. dont worry they will contact you via email if they want you to attend for interview.

and for people who say that aussie will only get the job is wrong. im asian and there seem to be a lot of asian last year who worked at the easter show

and yes, we uni people do have time to work at the easter show. i think there like a mid semester break when the easter show start. but it could be different this year =S

Re: Sydney Easter Show

well it really depend. i think 15 years old is alright. just wait for the reply from one of the company to see if they wanted to interview you. and its a group interview. usually takes around 10-15 minutes. you stand up, say your name, your experience and then they ask for your contact number.

they will msg you if you make it in or not.
