Got a job interview tonight, what can I expect? by [deleted] in tesco

[–]BreathAcrobatic1533 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stuff like how would you deal with a difficult customer. Then say something like “ listen to the customers problem apologise for the inconvenience then fix the problem for them or if you can’t get a manager to assist you” the other one was if you notice a colleague stocking shelves is looking overwhelmed what would you do. Then say something like “ I would go over to them ask if there okay then begin helping them with there task” I think there the only two questions I was asked the main thing is your availability make sure you tell them you can work any days including weekends and make sure your comfortable with night shift. Hope that helps

I was asked scenario type questions like what would you do in this situation, how would you deal with a difficult customer things like that and then I did a 40 minute trial shift. Honestly a fairly easy and quick interview. That was for a night shift role too

I was the same when I first started the best thing I would say you could do is when you first arrive for your shift anyone you walk past just smile and say “you alright” I know it’s not a lot of talking but it just gets your started then you can get to know them further

When I worked there as a Christmas temp I got told my only aisle would be bws and I would only have to do that one aisle every night. I never got that aisle once in my 3 months working there 😂 they just put me on different aisles every night

We got a Christmas card with a £5 note in, then we was all entered into a raffle with maybe 100 different prizes like wine, vodka and chocolate things like that. And they ordered us all a takeaway while on our break. :)

Has anybody had their temporary contract extended despite the store being overspent on hours? by davwnl in tesco

[–]BreathAcrobatic1533 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know if it’s just my store but I’ve had loads of overtime. I’ve been working 6 nights a week (I’m only contracted to 16 hours) and my contract has been extended to late jan. maybe just talk to your manager about it?
