Assalamualykum,
The 'job related mistakes' thread is kinda turning into this, but I dont think it was meant to, and I didnt want to derail it further so here it goes
. Post anything relating to job searching and job interviews here, advice, tips or your own questions, and maybe other Islamicans can help insha'Allah
.
My post from the other thread:
Ive got a job interview at a popular
stationary store. I should be happy but I dont really wanna work there. Ther people there are annoying. But it's one of the few shops I know where they dont have a lot of smelly teenagers, so maybe that's why they offered me an interview so soon. (They didn't have a vacancy advertised).
But half the people in there are miserable or cranky. Like one time I took out a paper pad and put back in the slightly wrong place. The the guy had to put it back and he was all huffy and puffy and 'for goodness sake...' really loud. Im like it's only a little out of place you dont have to cry about it. And sthu cuz the customer is always right.
Speaking of smelly teenagers I had a job interview at Boots when I was 17. It was my first and I was all enthusiastic and happy, my face hurt from being so smiley. Then I messed up at the role play bit, cuz she was being a customer asking me if the camera had flash and stuff. I was like uhhhhhhhhhh im not sure (but thinking back I should've just made it up for the sake of roleplay? Or should I have read the box and stuff to check? This is what I was confused about at the time). So anyways I applied another 2 times and didnt even get an interview. I saw this smelly emo boy being interviewed aswell. He got the job
.
So anyways. I need help. What questions are they likely to ask and what should I say?
What do I do in my spare time, why do they care
what kind of answer are they after?
This is my 2nd interview ever (alhamdulillah).
