    I have recently downloaded the "lateest" tesco application form
    the way they do it now is
    there are 16 questions
    you are given 4 choices, a,b,c,d

    now is the tricky bit
    you have to match the "best/most suiyable to you"
    and the
    "least/the one that least's decribe's you)
    for each question

    there is two columns
    one for the most suitable answer and one for the least suitable

    can anyone offer any advice on this "new" type application form
    it appears to of got a little more tricky to do now

    thanks in advance for any tips

    Hi there just read the last post and wondered if anyone could update - in desperate need of the answers to help my son get a job -
  • If unsuccessful, simply go back to the store and push all the shampoo bottles back to where they were.
  • Stupid way of short listing staff,

    Hey, asking this on behalf of my wife.

    She's filled out the application form but got her L's mixed up with her M's the whole way through the test - so all the answers and subsequent search for consistency in these answers is all back to front.

    Is it still worth leaving in the form or is it worth attaching a cover note to explain what you've done in error.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated - thanks!!

    Can she get another application form? I wouldn't put a cover letter on this one or they'll think she can't follow instructions.

    Yes, definately get another one. There is no way they will look upon any errors favourably even with a full explanation.

    As already said in unemployment thread while doing New Deal the agency providing the"training"trained us on Tesco questionaires giving us the template that would get us the interview..They had to be immacculate no smudges no marks , no spelling mistakes .
    Ive got copy of the template ill dig it out and put it up it was in use last year.
    We can have a confuse Tesco year as everyone puts in same answers.
