Next summer temp

Scroll to see replies

If you applied for the same position (Summer sales temp) at two different next stores .Would they only give you one of them and not both?
I applied to two stores and have been shortlisted for both :s-smilie: haha:smile:
One has an earlier closing date than the other .

I was thinking of applying for another but I thought that they might reject me 2 in 1 if I get rejected? Does that make sense?

Yep!
I thought what if I don't get it in one might as well take a shot at another :/

Thanks :smile: You too for the rest of the process!

I think I needed a job ages ago to be honest. My mum has been urging me to apply from before my exams even started but I didnt view it as a priority. Now I wish that I had done something about it as I would have secured a job by now....? I don't know.. Here's to getting the job now! :smile:


That's the same with me, I wish I looked for something sooner. If I'm not successful with this I'm going to look at volunteering to make my CV look somewhat interesting haha.

I wouldn't worry too much, it did say they can contact you two weeks after the closing date. I'll let you know if I get a call, if you don't get a call after the closing date I'd ring up:smile:

Nope :frown:
I've applied for other jobs as well and when the phone rings I think it may be a job offer/interview but it's always a sales call :laugh:

What sort of placement job is it? If it's something you really want to do then go for it. I suppose it depends if you would rather have a paid job, to earn cash :tongue:

The placement. The Next job is only for two days so it's not worth giving up something that benefits your future!
