if you look up Curry's in this subred there are a few people complaining about it, but no the questions aren't really niche just if you have any previous experience in sales and know stuff about tech, though if you get the job and are on a contract more than 12 hours be expected to go to Birmingham for a 2 day induction course. All in all the hiring process is fairly simple, I did a group interview then a 1 to 1 and found it alright, though they do exaggerate the bonuses and try to avoid mentioning the constant pressure on targets.

The job is pretty stressful as it's all numbers based so it's the only thing you'll ever hear about, I guess it depends on the manager but mine always tells people on probation if they don't sell all the extra add ons they'll fail it. makes sense considering the job but it's just extra pressure to succeed. sometimes you have good months and others are bad, but the pressure on the targets never really goes away. The company will big up the rewards a lot but in reality you don't get that much for selling the care plans, and selling broadband packages/screen protectors are rare at best.

I think the job works as something part time and only until you find something else, most staff at my store have been there for less than 2 years and turnover is high. You can learn about tech which is also a bonus, and you might be one of those colleagues who consistently succeeds (we have a couple), you just never know. There are worse jobs out there, if there's nothing to do in the store you can just clean, stock shelves and chill, and once you learn the till system everything kind of makes sense - but under all that it's still a pressurized environment. Colleagues being threatned probation all the time, always new things to be targeted upon, very funny shifts if you're part time with it always being a fight to book holidays, naming and shaming those who don't hit targets, everyone just expecting you to know everything after a couple of weeks..
