    It may be too late, had the interview last night...

    if there is still a posibility, where did you apply and what roles are they recruiting for?


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,640 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor


    I found the link on boards actually, have a look around for it, sorry dont have the link.

    They had said they were looking to recruit around 2000 people for it, so id say they are still taking applications.

    where do i apply?

    Best to get setup with an AIL club and then get yourself a provincial contract. Keep performing at that level and you could get a good few days work in the stadium.

    They're hardly going to induct you and then not give you the job...!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,811 ✭✭✭Alkers


    Same here, have to go for training on the 15th, asks for bank details PPS no. etc so presume it's a good thing!


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 21,640 Mod ✭✭✭✭helimachoptor

    Stadium Steward, so you could be inside the ground, in the beer/food area and or outside the ground, basically managing the area you're in to make sure there are no issues.

    Basically it's a group interview where you've to talk for two minutes about yourself, mentioning one good experience you've had either working as or dealing with a Steward at a sporting event and also one poor experience. Try sell yourself also, mentioning how you can travel to the stadium etc.
    I was one of the first people to speak when I went so didn't think I did as well as I could have but got the call back anyway.

    ^^^^^^^^^^

    Whatever you do, don't curse and also dont say how you always go to matches so a job in the Aviva is a way to get to go to matches without paying, some people :D

    awww i really wanted to experience working at the aviva :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 47 flightlessbird


    I have an interview for working in the kiosk on Tuesday.
    Can anyone tell me what I am to expect?

    I read above that they are group interviews. How big are these groups?
    Also, I recommend others keep applying, i mean I thought there was no hope when I applied just a couple of weeks ago, so they obviously haven't filled all the vacancies yet... :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,590 ✭✭✭Pigwidgeon


    I did my interview for waitressing with compass catering, it was an individual interview for it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 47 flightlessbird


    Thanks. Did you get the job? :)

    I know it's not really gonna be the same kinda questions, but what was the interview like?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,590 ✭✭✭Pigwidgeon


    Yeah I did. As far as I know most of the contracts are casual.

    Pretty much just a standard interview, asking what I thought was important in customer service, what dealing with someone in customer service should be like. Nothing too strange.
    It wasn't overly formal or anything.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9 shotbyagun

    Is there anything I need to bring with me?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25 rorymcn


    No, you don't need anything, pretty bog-standard interview. Got an email yesterday about the induction - delighted!

    Hi all,
    I have an interview in the aviva this week. I was hoping you might be able to help me with the interview. I haven’t really had a formal interview before. What questions did they ask in the interview?. What was the format of the interview... if it is one of the group interviews where you speak for 2 mins should I just speak about my previous work experiences or what should I talk about. I’m just really nervous about it. Any advice or information you have would be really appreciated,
    Many Thanks,:)
    Mark
