Quick, Help me with my job application form

[Tobes]

Got one question which I can't answer

"Why do you want to work for us"

Is a supermarket.... well why do I?

I don't really but I need the money....


HELP!

[Raide]

Tell them you are interested in retail and wish to expand your practical knowledge of how to work more effectively in this environment. Also tell them that you want the job so you can improve your people skills and customer relation skills. Saying you have an interest in customers wellbeing and interests also help too.

[Tobes]

Excelent Raide. Thanks very much (Y)

So I might have a chance of not getting kicked out of the house :)

[Raisedbyflames]

just say you want money any one who says they wantto work for them for another reason is a liar and they know it

[Tobes]

lol. See this is why I think of myself as a good writer. I don't tend to BS. So when a job form asks me why I want to work there. What job I would like to do. What job I wouldn't like to do and why.... my mind draws a blank as it wants me to write down:

I need the money. Any job I don't care I need the money. Not cleaning cause that is a crap job and you wouldn't get me doing that.... ever.

[Raide]

My fave one was a good friend of mine...he has the same question and he wrote "I need money for food." Needless to say, he did not get the job...

[Raisedbyflames]

i hate when they askweredo you see your self in5years,

in my mind im thinking not here please not here

i just say happy and content

[Raisedbyflames]

yeah your obviously nto going to try hard if their not paying you much

[JJBDude]

I'd blab on bout experience for this type of work, like Raide said. Worked extremely well for work experience, the staff members actually thought I was enjoying working in the canteen cleaning dishes all day, LOL.

I got a job myself. Uncle phoned me up and asked if I wanted to help him renevate(I think) houses. ie just tear down walls and stuff so he can decorate them. Easy £30 a day:cool:

(Y) with the job toby

[Tobes]

Cheers. If I don't hear back from them in 2 weeks I haven't got the job. I'm finding it very very hard to find anywhere in Newquay at the moment. Things are not good at home either as parents are threatening to kick me out. So I'm trying my hardest to find a job so I can move out of here. But because this is Newquay all the flats have been taken by emits. *sigh*

Anyone want a 32" LCD, Expensive Amp, expensive 5.1 speaker setup, a beast of a PC and another Xbox 360? All you have to do is let me live with you lol.
