I had my interview this Wednesday, does anybody know how long they'll take to get back to me ??
Got an Interview on Wednesday. Hopefully all goes well
Hello! Could any of the people who had interviews at Peter Jones tell me how they went please? Like what did you have to do and what questions did they ask you? I have an interview there in a few days and I'm so nervous!
I have an interview next week and technically haven't finished my GCSEs yet as I have about 9 left to go. Will this hinder my chances at getting a job as I have a group interview next week?
Omg what branch is it as I have my GCSE's aswell and I have an interview next week?

you should be fine i had my interview before i started my a-levels exam and i got the job. also you get the chance to tell them when you want to start and how much notice you need so it shouldn't be a problem
I was in the same situation with my old job, I find it helps to tell them your predicted grades and let them know you're planning to do A Levels (if you are) as this shows intelligence and they like hiring young students as they're usually part time :smile: grades don't matter so much in this kind of job though, they care more about how you react in scenarios that would apply to your everyday job - hope this helps and good luck!

Do they just watch how you react in the small groups they put you in or in the whole twenty people or however many there are?

theres two parts
one part is the 1-1 interview where there looking at your skills and how you react in situations
the second is a group interview where they watch you then you have to present to the assessor but dont worry theres no right or wrong answer to the group part

Okay and does the group bit take up two hours? Or is it less than that and more on the one on one?
