    Abercrombie And Fitch
    Hiya

    Iv applied for the model role for the Abercrombie and Fitch branch in london. I applied on the website and theyve invited me for an interview. They told me to choose at time and date, which i did. I havnt recieved like a conformation or anything. Im worried. LOL..anyway..how do you describe the interviewing process. Do i have to look all clean and fresh, with wavy beach hair? im so scared for this interview.I dont know what to expect?

    Help me

    I think i speak for everyone when i say, show us a picture of you cos you must be super hawt if a&f are considering you

    But form what ive seen on The hills lol they are normally very straight forward no airy fairy chat.. plus you have to be really careful with your words.. coming in looking all hot will work in your favour i guess.. i mean its a modelling gig right?
    Im assuming they'll ask you about your lifestyle.. what you eat, what you do etcc

    Just be enthusiastic and well-presented. Let's be honest, the assistants in A&F are incredibly hot, but they aren't helpful!

    they invite everyone to the interview, and once your there they'll analyse you in terms of looks and previous experience. Don't wear coloured nail varnish or obvious make-up, basically look like you've come off a beach and they'll take you. They also won't take you if you look similar to one of their current employees, and bear in mind that you're on minimum wage so is it really worth paying for transport to go into london and then back out whilst you're usually only working 4 hour shifts, make sure you're making a profit!

    they don't tell you about pay unless you specifically ask them in your interview which I didn't, but my friend who worked there said it was minimum wage! You had to wait a bit, I'll reapply in september if I can't find anything with more money (although discount is good!)

    Seriously, unless you're really keen on the discount, I wouldn't work there. It's really hard to actually even do your job because it's so freaking dark in there, and the pay is ****e. Most people work there just for the discount, and it's hard to get lots of hours. (If you're a guy) when it's your day to just 'greet' you get paid a bit more but I really don't think its worth it unless you're in love with the clothes. But you get to be surrounded by beautiful people, so every cloud .

    well it depends they always recruit even if they don't have positions, so sometimes they'll have a position up after 2 weeks, n sometimes longer

    just to confirm the interview contains the 3 group questions and then filling in the form for your availability, etc. right? I get the feeling I may have left before it was over
