Hey, I have managed to secure myself an interview at ASDA, I am just curious.. I have a holiday booked, its only 3 days, 1st-3rd december, would this effect my chances in getting the job?

My Daughter did not apply for seasonal but was told at interview it was a tep role for Christmas I would wait until after the interview my daughter spent 3 hours there and still did not get the role that maybe because she has not exp?
Also she asked about extra hours extra and she was told they have a rota and you mark off when you can work or not maybe you could work other days to make up for the 3 days leave Good Luck with the Interview
My Daughter informed me there was a group session first where she had to introduce someone else and then they where put in groups and you had to make up an advert selling one of there products you then worked on shop floor for about an 1 hour then you had a 1-2-1 interview.

If it is a perm job you may well be ok. Offer to work a double shift on the Sunday you're back, some people hate working Sundays..

Thanks for the advice. I hope i am with a decent chance, I worked there before as a Christmas temp.. I know what to expect in the interview.. If i didnt, id be running around in circles panicking. (like the last time)
Off to get sorted then its interview time. Fingers crossed.

well done....now save and save and save...It is nice to see the value of your house going up'' Why ?
Unless you are planning to sell up and not live anywhere, I can;t see the advantage.
If you are planning to upsize the new house will cost more.
If you are planning to downsize your new house will cost more than it should
If you are trying to buy your first house its almost impossible.0 -
Well done! :beer::T0
