i went to an CML interview other day, and was told i got the job and now im just waiting for an induction email, that was like 3 days ago, ill probably for have ring up the guy if it doesnt happen any time soon.
but anyway , the job is for casual grocery nightfill(anybody know what this job invovles?)the interview dude said something moving "cartons" and has to fill a specified quota every shift, he didnt explain and i didnt ask, anyone know what that means?
anyone got any experiences with coles, and what i can expect from it?
"
hey mate i work at coles and have for the past year. Basically the same thing happened to me went for an interview got the job had to sit an online induction, you have to usually wait a week till you recieve it. What it is , it basically gives you details about the store, history of coles and all the safety stuff and customer service, you have to answer questions. The questions are heaps easy sometimes i didnt even read the information but its better you do, the test takes 6 hrs for which they pay you.
I started off on the register but now i do what ur position entitles. Basically you et a cage which has boxes on it full of items, you then stake the items on the shelves etc, if they dont fit u leave the remaining items on the box write the number of them left and the product number. Its simple crap but yer
The other things you do late at night usually involve facing up the store, that is making sure the products are face forward and properly alined its all shit i hardly put much effort into it. U know those brand power commercials? they want u to make the store look like that b4 they close it.
Also at night they might make u do capping which is whatever items and boxes are on the floor u put up on top of the shelves. In some cases, and this is what i hate they make u take down bxoxes from the top, check the items and see if any can fit on the shelves, Tuna pisses u off cause theres so much. But yeh thats basically it, once u get used 2 it becomes easy.
All these people that think checkouts is a higher position or is bettter its not, you have to deal with nagging old grannies because u didnt give them 5 cents. What ur doing u can walk round the store, check out chicks and bludge occasionally. But yeh how old are ya? ill tell u how much u should be gettn paid. and which store did u get the job at?
