Haha ! I got the job :smile:

questions i got asked: examole of team work, example of building a rship with a customer, how i dealt with how a customer was feeling, how i solved a customer problem. How i told someone about product knowledge and how i found out knoweldge from another peer. And finally how I implemented a way of improving things within the current pharmacy i work for ! The role is actually pharmacy adviser which is a mix of dispensing and otc :smile:

Hi, I've applied for the same role, they don't advertise the pay, could you tell me of its the national minimum or over?

Just asking as I've applied at another pharmacy so want to compare wages.

Thanks

Sorry, I don't know. I haven't heard if I've got the job yet or not and I didn't ask at the interview as I'm expecting minimum wage with it being a trainee post.

Hey - I have an interview next week! I was wondering if you could tell me more about the role as you stated you got the job! I.e. how are you finding it? When did you start your NVQ? Is it provided via Boots? Do you do it in your own time or do it with/at Boots? How is the pay during training? Also are you full-time or part-time? What are the general hours you work i.e. shift/nights/early mornings or 9-5? Sorry for the bombardment of questions!

Hi - have you started your job yet (trainee)? I was wondering if anyone could answer any of the questions above! Thank you!

Hi guys! Not sure any of you will look at this, but worth a shot! I just applied online to the trainees dispenser position. How soon after completing the online form did you hear if you were successful for interview? Trying to find another job as quickly as possible- would love this position, so a tad on edge waiting. I only just did the online form last night (so i know i'm being impatient). Thank you!

I have the interview tomorrow.. Stuck on what I could say in answer to questions about 'times I have helped a customer before' etc. As I have never worked in customer service!! Most of the interview questions seem to be about customer service experience so I'm panicking.
