I really hate them.

"why do you want to work for us?"

errmmm, because I want money? :rolleyes:

obviously I can't say that.

I got four application forms, all are a bit nasty, but Subways and Morrisons have to be the worst!

Tell me about it. Wait until you get that question in the interview. lol

haha, ones for a job staking shelfs, 39 hours a week, after the shop closes.

I can't even say its because I like working with people! gahh. surely its blatantly obvious the only reason I want it is because I want money. ah well

I think all employers know you wouldn't apply for a job for any other reason except for money.When I had that q on my application form I put something really gay like 'I'd like work for a loca store with a friendly atmosphere.'

You're looking at it from the wrong angle guys. Sure, you want the money, but what made you choose that company over another? Certainly, you're not going to love the company, but if you absolutely hated it you wouldn't want to work there. For example, is there an aspect of the job which will develop you, or have you heard good things from someone else? Or with my Debenhams interview, I simply said I have done fashion retail before and Debenhams sells a higher quality of product.
