Unless they specified "nightfill", I think it's shelf stacking and price checking during the day.

wot is it C.D?

I got an email from Coles which said I passed my group interview and am short-listed for the next stage. However this was 5-6 days ago. Now I am worried.

If I dont get it Im gonna be pissed and get into graphic design

I reckon you'll get it.

I applied when mine changed from bilo to coles.. and we hired about 5 new people, then a month later we got another 2-3 more.. and I think we got even more grocery people recently.. Seems like everyday I see new faces o_O

usually most jobs in the media industry is all through connecitons, or so I'm told by people working in the media.

but when you study media at uni you usually get to meet people who work in the industry and are on their way up by the time they graduate leaving an open position. so i was very lucky because the few others i work with are in their final year or graduated last year.

if you want a job in the media do heaps of experience, pitch stories to editors and through that you can have many valuable contacts.

if you perservere you can achieve anything. good luck! :)
