Started the interview with saying there is no designing involved there, am I okay with that?
Salary range is not clear. It was advertised between £24k-28k at first. For the second time I have seen it for £26k-28k. On the day I’ve been told the “base” salary is £18k but it all depends on the location. I can earn up to £30k apparently. Also, they earn commission but it’s also based on the location, it varies.
Usual retail hours; every weekend you’re scheduled. They send you a questionnere before the interview with questions like :
-Can you work every/most weekend and Bank Holiday? There is 2 days off during the week and week-end are a must as we have the highest traffic during that time.
-Are you flexible in working hours? We have different 8h shifts which can vary from store to store?
-When required, are you happy to do customer Home consultations/visit?
-Do you understand that this is a retail position with 80% sales/admin/store routine and 20%design? Any comments
-/ Where do you live? Is the travel to work ok? As to location- which store(s) would not be suitable
-If employed, why do you want to move on?
-What is your salary expectations?
Technically they now know everything about me but they have said nothing about the position. Every question I asked I was given a shallow reply, nothing certain. Absolutely waste of my time.
