    Thanks for the kind offer. I'll get my mum to read over it she's an Interviewer not that, that help me get through the first time though lol!

    I think I'll email it tomorrow, I feel like they'll just take one glance at it, and say "no, we already have enough people!"

    Argh, couldn't they interview me now for the August appls so I don't have to wait. I can't take this, I'm just sitting at home, suppose to be revising for my stupid exam tomorrow, all I can do is check on here, and check my email, in case it was a mistake lol!

    I'm really sorry to hear about you guys who didn't get through, good luck with your future applications.
    I've just read my emails and have been successful in getting a phone interview.

    I wish you all the best of luck, and wish we could be going through this journey together.

    I'm jealous of and happy for you all at the same time lol. Darn conflicting emotions.
     
  8. It doesn't mean anything yet. just cos we got phone interviews doesn't mean were going by any means. Im still equally as fucked up about it lol!
    But i am surprised at how bad i feel for u guys, seriously. I wish i knew what 2 say, but if ur anything like me there is nothing i can say.

    And yeah Jasper, I know you're not in yet but it feels so crap not to have even been considered good enough for a 10 minute phone call. I didn't think my CV/covering letter was THAT bad... but apparently so... Oh well.

    im sure it wasnt ure CV or cover letter hun, its just a shitter really, they may of just filled their quota quickly or sumthing n im sure ull b one of the 1st considered in august!
    what merch or f&b experience have u had? and how old are you?
     
  16. This is the way I look at it, if you get rejected at the cv round, then its nothing to do with you as a person. Its just that maybe ur work experience, or cover letter didnt fit what they're looking for.
    Now, if i get rejected in the phone or if i make it 2 the face2face, then that is due to my personality, and that is really gonna be upsetting.

    There is nothing i can say cos i know it wont make u feel better. But if i dont get through im gonna apply again, and i hope u do to.

    ToddyBee, I'm 22 and have waitressing, bar work, hotel reception, retail, reception, admin and customer service (call center) experience. I also have an NVQ in customer service. I think the qualifications are there, but I didn't sell myself well enough in the covering letter.  :-\

    I wish I knew what a good covering letter looks like to them... I was worried about being too personal but I think I wasn't personal enough... Oh well. I genuinely am happy for the rest of you, I just really want to come along on the ride with you. I feel kinda cheated for getting kicked out so soon.
     

  20. Were not going yet by any means mate. We could get told no after this stage and be applying again in august. Which i am definitely going to do.


    Todd you got facebook mate?
