I was in the job centre today to sign on (hopefully for the last time) and there was somebody who had been offered a Morrison's position starting on 12th September. I was really shocked when the staff said although there was a job offer, her benefits will stop if not actively seeking work until then. Instead of being supportive they were quite pushy with her over applying for other jobs and perhaps taking them until she starts there.

I still haven't heard by the way, although I did call to try and let someone know I had been offered another position somewhere else. I asked if there was a contact number and they said no, and took no info from me. I would have thought that info regarding someone dropping out would possibly help them but they were not interested. Grrrrrrrr.

That is SO bad, you would think they would've been interested in giving the position to someone else straight away, seeing that there are still loads of folk awaiting a reply! P.S I'm still awaiting a reply, into the 6th week now, as i had my interview on the 1st day!! I called today and was told that the last letters were being posted out 2nd class today, so should hear by Fri,, but then again i was told that last Fri too!! Seems like a lot of folk are getting told different things,, honesty wouldn't go a miss!!

i dont think they have handled the recruitment process very well, they left it way to late to start recruiting if they wanted all their staff trained up properly, i have a feeling on opening day alot of staff will be walking around not knowing what to do or if they are doing right or wrong...

i think the interview process was abit strange too, 5 people interviewing in one room..

they definatly need to get a move on, alot of people have different start dates aswell, like my neighbour is having her induction on the 12th sep and mine is on the 24th...

checkout staff don't need as long to train up on tills.
think diff departments need more training than others.
what are you & your friend going to be working?
