ASDA induction

I went for an interview at ASDA and got a phone call the next day to say I have the Job!!

Is it normal for them to contact you the next day? They said 72 hours!! :confused:

Anyway i was told that i will have to go and collect some sort of pack from the customer service desk! I was so shocked that i was contacted so quickly that i hardly took in what i was being told!!

Does anyone know the proper name so i don't make a total nugget of myself when i ask for it? I think it was the welcome pack offer or something like that not 100% sure :confused: ! Does anyone Know what it consists of? (i want to know now i am nosey) I persumed it would be my uniform as i was told to collect it before my induction!! I hate it when people talk so fast and don't explain things properly!!! :mad:

Does anyone know what the ASDA induction is like? I know it will be ok but i just want to know what will happen now (i hate the unknown).

Thank you X

It won't be your uniform. Just go to the CSD, state your name and ask if they have your Welcome Pack, which will be information about the company and company policy I imagine. ASDA Induction is, last I knew, a 2 days thing, where they give you some basic customer service training, show you around the store, give you your swipe in cards etc etc.

Thank you again :biggrin:

So when do you get your uniform then? It is just that i put down reg length for the trousers and i think i should have put down long, (i worry about the stupedest things i know) but i was told that reg is the longest they have is that right? I have to know for my sanity, i can just imagine them being half way up my leg (i always imagine the worst) as i am quite tall (5ft 7in). Could i just wear plain black trousers that i already have if they don't fit or is it essential you wear their ones that they give you? Surely not.

5ft 7 is not tall, regular will be fine. Every store is different so I cannot say, I guess it may be your uniform, who knows.
