Dress businessy - for guys, a nice button top and pants (NOT JEANS), with your school shoes should be fine... same sort of deal for girls, but they can wear skirts That's what most people wore to my interview.

Just to clear up, are these regular or Xmas casual positions?

 

[Dash]

Well I got the interview through the colesmyer recruitment website thingy for christmas casuals...
So I suspect so...

 

[iambored]

it's funny that they called babydoll_ for now when she's looking for christmas casual

 

[tooheyz]

i was a christmas casual for 2003... and now i'm a permanant casual (if that makes sense)
you continue working afterwards until u decide to leave

[blue_lemonade]

aww. I got past the group interviews...but no one has called me..=(

i went for the group interview in june. does it usually take this long for them to call you??

 

[tooheyz]

yeah when i went, it was bout this time of the year; in august.
i didnt get a call until late october/ early november for induction
then i called for work during mid december..

its a pretty slow process when i went through mine..
looks like its still a slow process...

so dont stress, they will call once christmas draws near.
