    Want the truth? - Yes. :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Most of the 'ladies' will be tucked up in bed by now - but worth a try I suppose. :T

    Hi again PaP, and everyone:hello:

    I'm just back from my ASDA interview - went on for nearly Three Hours. :eek:
    But it was quite fun - there were 8 of us at the interview, should have been 12, but 4 didn't turn up.
    It started with a 'get to know you' ice-breaker, where you had to find out about the person next to you, in 2 minutes, then introduce him/her to the group. There were a couple of 'role play' excercises, lots of talk about how good ASDA treats its employees, followed by a one to one interview session - they all clapped when I came back in the room, as my interview went on for 10 minutes longer than anyone else's :confused:
    THEN I had to spend ten minutes 'packing shopping' at the tills - I was so glad that I didn't know any of the customers. :embarasse :embarasse
    They tell us that we should know within 72 hours if we were successful.
    I do NOT like the new ASDA uniforms. :eek:

    Anyway - thanks for everybody's best wishes - I shall, now, wait and see.

    Oh, by the way - I did not spend anything, even though they didn't offer coffee. :rolleyes:

    :eek: :eek: :eek: I cannot believe they kept you there for three hours and never even offered you a coffee!!! :eek: :eek: :eek:

    Asda treats their employees fabulously but not their prospective employees huh???? ;)

    Having said that Rog, I think it sounds very promising. :T

    I did all the hiring and firing in my previous job and usually only took extra time with the interesting ones. (and I always gave them a blimmin :coffee: !!)

    Let's hope you hear soon,

    Love Jacks xxx :D
