Xtra-vision Application form

Gavin "shels"

One of the questions is "If you have not held a job, have been studying or are returning to work after a break, tell us what you have
been doing", I haven't held a job in a year, so would I be saying what I've been studying for or what?

Great suggestions, only problem is I'll be telling them I just done my Leaving Cert there last month, so doubt they'd believe either.:D Think I might just say that.:cool:

Whatever, so long as it's vaguely related to the truth, and you can answer some sensible questions about it:

Travel - so where did you go, what did you see?

Caring for an ill relative - what did you find hardest about it, is the situation in hand now?

Study - what were you doing? have you completed a qualification?

Building a web-site - what's the site?

Working in a family business - what did you do there, what did you achieve?

Ended up just writing down I left my last job due to me wanting to concentrate on completing and achieving the best possible grades in Leaving Cert.:D

They won't ask you - I never used to ask any interview candidates when I worked there!

Also - put down that you're flexible - if you want to get the job..

They aren't no, but well there's no harm in sending them an application form and a CV. Also I put down I could work in four different stores so hopefully an advantage.

The Finglas branch had a sign in the door recently. I think it was for part time staff, €9.09/hr. Not sure of the details, or if the sign is still there.
