The Waitrose Thread II

hey veryone, I get this message cpming upThank you for your recent application for the role of Supermarket Assistant, Nights.We now invite you to complete the next part of the application process. Please log back into the communication centre as soon as you can and follow the instructions. Kind regardshowever I have not received any other correspondence in the communication centre yet. should I have received tests yet? the job opening closes tomorrow if that means anything

I'd log back on and have another look under the section where your current application is. Maybe wait a day or two.

If you really can't find it you can always phone them and ask from there.

Thanks, it's been like that since Tuesday.... I think what I will do is wait until the job posting closes (tommorow) and then if nothing happens I will give them a email. Is the interview layout the same for a night shift position or is it a 1-1?

Look under review status in the jlp jobs website, it will have changed from application received

I recently just got the job at Waitrose, will I get a premium for working over time, it says Hours above FTE 1.0 "Single time 1.0" on partner link?

Also, my position is temporary and finished January, so will I get a name badge? And still be applicable for discount? Plus what is the chance they'll keep me on?

Lastly, i got my start date but there is no time, what do I do?

Just been given a job as a out of hours replenishment assistant! What is the uniform which has to be worn?

I work nights part time (contracted Saturday, Sunday, Monday) which happens to be the days Christmas falls on this year (Saturday is Christmas eve; then both Monday and Tuesday are bank holidays-Monday for boxing day and Tuesday in lieu of Christmas day as it's on a Sunday), and was wondering if anyone had an idea about what days I can expect to be regular working days.

I have plans to be away for Christmas but I know getting holiday time over Christmas is particularly tricky (which is why I want to get my request in ASAP), so it would be helpful to know how much I would actually be asking to miss. Can I assume we won't be working the 24th (which is the Saturday) as we will be closed the 25th? And almost certainly won't be expected to work the 25th? So does that just leave boxing day?

What about New Years?

I know it might all vary by store but just to get some general ideas would be a big help-I worked at another branch last year, but we were originally only contracted up to the 24th and I already had a holiday booked over Christmas, so I was not there the entire period until beginning of Jan, so I don't even have the vaguest idea when they're not open and when that usually means no night shift.

I'm sure this question has been asked before but how do transfers work? As I don't know where I'll be until results day I haven't mentioned it to my line managers but is it easy to get a transfer to a different branch or from Waitrose to John Lewis? The partnership is such an amazing place to be and I really don't want to have to leave it with uni

Anyone know how to request a transfer? I'd like to transfer to the Waitrose near Brighton, particularly the one near University of Sussex as i'm going there. Cheers
