Interview at Greggs on Saturday...

We have a choice of 3 aprons:

Long halter neck
Tabard
Half waist apron

A choice of either a shirt or polo t-shirt.

And a choice of either a skirt or trousers.

The entire uniform is Navy.

If you have just got a job with Greggs they will ask you, which you prefer.

Started working for Greggs on Monday and loving it so far, the staff at the shop I'm currently based in are very welcoming

And with weekly pay you really can't go wrong

Thanks, What do the majority seem to go for? I'm quite clumbsy so maybe a tabard or a long halter neck would be best for me.

What did you go for?

I went for the polo shirt, trousers and a long halter neck apron, thought it would be better with me being tall, but it all looks presentable together.

I beleive we are getting a 2.2% pay rise sometime this month!

Yeah? Yey

How soon after inductions are people usually getting their first shifts? So my induction is the 15th, will I have a shift the 16th by any chance?

My induction was 26th March started on the 28th.

Depends which shop you're at and if it opens on a Saturday.

You should receive a letter soon to confirm which day you'll start and what time you will start.

Ooh cool thanks for the reply!



another random question, if you have to travel for an induction do they tend to reimburse your travel? I'm having to get the train and it's costing me £12 return which isn't much I guess, but I was just wondering

Hi, im considering applying for a job at my local greggs and just wondering about their piercing policy. Im guessing as its the food industry that its none whatsoever, but does this mean no retainers as well, I have a lip piercing which I'm more than happy to take out and have no fears it will heal up, but I also have my nose pierced and really don't want it to heal, and I know it will if I have it out like all day so I wondered if a retainer or plaster would be an option or is it just no piercings and thats the end of it?

If anyone could help, I'd be greatful

Ooh cool thanks for the reply!

yeah it was online for me too

btw someone was asking me yesterday if I'll be off for the bank holidays coming up (particularly the royal wedding one), does anyone know the bank holiday opening/closure for Greggs? Just wondering, it got me curious lol

Ah okay, so I'll just have to keep checking the website to see if there are any vacancies around here.
Are you enjoying working there so far?

I think the Royal Wedding isn't classed as a bank holiday for Greggs, don't quote me on that though :P

On the usual bank holidays, I think shops usually just operate Sunday hours, so if your shop is closed on a Sunday it should be closed on the bank holidays, and if it's usually open Sundays it'll be the shorter hours...
