Thank you everyone so much.
Well it went really well actually:beer: . I had a numeracy test to do which i was really worried about as i am rubbish at maths! Anyway the questions were actually quite hard but i managed to pass, to pass i had to get 32 or more out of 35 and i did, woop woop.
Next was role play, i had to be the service advisor and the interviwer was the customer, i had to make sure i got certain points/phrases across and i asked security questions and i had to also try and sell a product which i did, i passed that. Then it was the one to one interview and the woman said i came across really well, she said there and then i would be selected for a second interview tomorrow.
So i have that to look forward to,its with the actual bank manager so i so hope i impress.
The job is just what i am looking for, good money and i get commission on ne product i get a customer to apply and get!
I should hopefully find out tomorrow if i have got it. I know they want someone to start in Jan, my boss said i have to stay employed to him until the end of Feb but i don't actually think he can do anything about it, if needs be i'll hand my notice in rather than him make me redundant.
I felt soooo tired when i come out and had a massive headache! Must be all the concentration!
Hope your all well and doing plenty of money saving.
Mummy - thanks hun, yes i wouldn't mind doing some surveys for extra cash xxx0 -

Just come across ur thread, I noticed you say ur boss is dropping ur hrs to 16, without coming across as a nosey sod, are you contracted for 16 hrs, or more, it sounds like he is trying to say every penny he can, as if you resign, its no redundancy, he makes you renduant, he has to pay, whether its 2 weeks or 20 weeks its the same principle you are entiled to it.
