Hello,

It will probably vary from store to store, I have been working at Specsavers for about 3 weeks now (I work on Saturdays).

When I had my interview I was asked what I knew about the company and why I wanted the job. I also was asked to tell them a bit about myself and just general things like what A levels I am doing. Do not be nervous - you will be fine!! Good luck


Thanks for reply :smile: it helped! Interview went well- I'm normally get really nervous but I felt comfortable and I think I answered the questions well!

There seems to be loads of room for progression which sounds great to me and I really hope I get the job- I should find out by next week and although I feel confident that the interview went well. Loads of people have applied and he has been interviewing loads all week so all depends on the others I guess!

Glad to hear it went well! Yeah, lots of room to progress and (in my store at least) there is always chances to do extra days. Good luck, I thought the chances of me getting it were very slim - lots of people also applied, but I guess I got lucky :wink:

I'm really sorry to hear that! Although this might not help, I didn't get the job at first, they gave it to someone else and that other person declined so then I got the offer.

Best of luck with your search

What did you guys wear to your interview? I’ve got one tomorrow and very unsure what to wear?
Wear something smart , when I went for an interview with them I wore a smart black dress with tights and shoes .
And when people are interviewed in my store now they are very impressed with how some people attend the interviews!
Good luck
