Debenhams Assesment Centre

aumz · 20 Mar 2006 at 17:50

To my surprise got a phone call from Debenhams, after what I thought was an awful telephone interview.

Assesment centre is the final stage, if I impress there they will offer a job straight away.
repare pleas
Is there any on here that works for Debenhams or has been through the process.

Any information would be useful to help please.

Thanks

Can I be entirely nosey and ask if this is for a placement?

If it's like any of the assessment centres I've done in the last few weeks for placements, it'll likely be group activities, where you're given a problem or task, and they see how well you work with a group of unknown other candidates.

Then a good interview or two to see what you're like, personality and general skills. Either way, go into the assessment and be as geared up and ready to go, with as much enthusiasm as possible. On feedback from one of my placement centres, I was told I needed to sell myself a lot better, didn't get the job though

The above implies that you are a graduate ....... :eek:

I'm surprised that you got any farther than the interview considering your language skills.
I wish you the best of luck in your endeavours but please make a little effort with punctuation at the very least.
