Next summer temp

I recently applied for a summer temp job at next, the sale support team. I received an email today saying my application has been shortlisted and they will contact me by phone if successful. I was just wondering if anyone has applied for this same role, as they have started hiring across the country now for the summer sale. Has anyone had an interview yet? Was it through the phone? Because it's only for a short amount of time for the sale, some have said there wasn't much of an interview, just an induction. Any help would be appreciated, thanks:biggrin:

Hey! I've applied to the same job and I'm at the same stage you are. I don't think the interview will be so formal since the job's only for the summer

Not yet, I just got the email earlier today but I'm assuming that they'll call sometime this week since the sales will be starting soon

From what I've heard they call and tell you to come in store, which is for the induction. I think it depends on the store, some people was asked 1-2 interview questions over the phone and then got offered the job. It's only for the summer sale so I doubt it'll be anything to complicated, hopefully! Lol

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:
Just applied for the same job guys! I'll let you know how it all works out :biggrin:
