Where do large UK chain stores advertise there jobs?

slugger09

I've been looking on the job centre website for quite a while and the choice of jobs has been very limited, then today when walking through a local shopping centre I was looking at the various chain stores, the Carphone Warehouses, the O2 stores, the Argos stores etc, and I thought to myself I wouldn't mind a job in one of these type of stores but I have never seen any job advertised in the Job Centre, sure you may find them on the likes of monster but they are always for graduate jobs, never for entry level such as sales or even in the store/warehouse, so where exactly do they advertise? Places I was thinking about that have never seen advertised are.

• Argos
• Currys
• O2 Shop
• Orange Shop
• Vodafone Shop
• 3 Store
• Carphone Warehouse
• Tesco
• Asda

Ah right, probably explains it

If you have a large shopping centre near you, then some of them have their own internal 'agency' which will advertise all levels of jobs for store in their centre. If not then they generally advertise in store - always worth asking and popping a CV in store.

Argos is in store only (go in and ask for a form)

Tesco/Asda you can download it online and post it or hand it.

The rest all have their own websites.

Hope that helps

For Sainsburys and B&Q you have to apply on-line. Good luck with your job search!

Sometimes shopping centres have a sort of recruitment open day for stores to sign up Christmas temps. My local Debenhams also has a couple of open recruitment sessions for Christmas.

Christmas temping could be a very good way in...I got offered a temp job at Debenhams after a 5 minute chat. Find and bookmark the job sites for every store and check your local paper and ask around...they won't be recruiting yet but probably end of August or beginning of September. You'll need to check every store site every day as vacancies can be listed and filled within 24 hours or less.

Looking at there websites they all have a very limited number of jobs, I'm talking a handful for the entire nation and none of them have any jobs in Northern Ireland

Anyone can do entry level jobs so they don't need to advertise so much. They will get plenty of people coming in through their doors asking for work.
