How to get an interview with Cineworld

My friend applied as well, he has a lot of experience in supervising positions as well, yet got rejected twice. I think it might be due to the available hours he listed - they might prefer a person who is able to start at 10 am or whenever they open and stay until 3 am. That's the only explanation I can think of.
If you have any luck in the future, let us know how you managed to do it

A covering letter expresses why you want to work there and why your skills would make you an instant assest to the company.

Thanks, a lot of people have been saying to me that it's just about what hours you can do, which is a bit **** for me. Can I ask how many hours your friend put down that he could do?

He put 15 hours, I think, but offered multiple days. Honestly, I don't know how he expected to get it since he put down that he wanted to finish at 10 pm...

Basically asking anyone who is currently working there. I have applied many time but I always get rejected and I don't know why. I love films and would love to work there but I never get invited to an interview.

I have only one previous experience (working in a shop) is that not enough experience they are looking for? Do I need to have more experience to be considered? I can work 4 days a week and I am currently studying for my HND (going onto university next year) is that enough? is there a standard that needs to be met?

There is a new cineworld opening near my house and they are having an open day where you hand in your CV and I would love to work there. Does anyone have any tips on what I can do or put on my CV which can help me get at least an interview. My CV is pretty good, lecturers in my college have looked at it and helped me with it so its not like its of a low standard.

So can anyone tell me what they are looking for that I don't have?

Any chance you are talking about Silverburn? I know the feeling, I have applied for the one in Glasgow city centre AT LEAST 25 times. I got called for an interview the very first time, but I didn't get it.

I don't know to be honest, my sister has an english degree and got rejected. It's unfortunate, but employers can be so fussy these days. Maybe it is the hours.

Yes I am! Same I've applied for the one in Renfrew Street so many time but always get knocked back. The one opening in Cineworld is creating like 100 new jobs so I thought my chances are greater there. You going to be going to the fair?

Yeah the more people are talking to me the more I am thinking it is just about the hours

I had an interview at River Island on Monday, if I don't get it, I'll go! I'll give you a shout if I'll be attending, it's always better to have someone you know at the interview.

I'm afraid, it's not the case, I said I'm available any day, any time on all of my applications and still got turned down..

Who knows what employers want, if I did I would have had at least five different jobs by know. I would love to be able to talk to top employers and ask what they want, even mcdonalds and greggs. I have applied to greggs in the past and not even got an interview for that. Maybe it's being overqualified.

Really?? Ugh what do they want from us??

I submitted the same application (the one that got me interview) a few times, but I kept getting the rejection e-mail.. Honestly, I think they blacklist all applicants who had interview, but ended up getting turned down.
