  • According to previous posts on this forum, they offer a zero hours contract i.e. no guaranteed minimum hours. No one has said anything about their interviews.

    I did attend the interview just basics of showing you the equipment you use when stocktaking, I was offered a zero hours contract which I turned down, but recently I think they are offering 6 hour per week contracts, If you daughter is a car driver then she would get a mileage allowance and possibly pick up fellow stocktakers.

    I would call these typical stocktaking jobs as useful for picking up extra money and precarious for a regular income. Realise that there will be dead periods in all of December and around Easter public holidays when stores are busy selling and not rubbing their chins about their stock.
    As for the work, you need a high boredom threshold and to be able to work without someone there to talk to. Simple maths and presence of an IQ helps.
  • just had an interview with them. Only thing I can say is "leve your dignity outside the door"
  • i tried it once. but, i just got sick of the taste of it after week or so,

    actually disregard my comment i thought you were talking about oats,

    hahaha (sorry i'm a muppet)
