GOT A JOB INTERVIEW AT TESCO NEED help FORUM!

Of all the places ive worked i dont think ive ever seen anyone turn up in a suit for a interview, if they did they would have been laughed at. You can be overdressed for certain positions.

For positions in offices and such then sure go for it but for the likes of Tesco just dress smart and be polite.
 
I didn't wear a suit to my interview & they sent me 2 letters telling me I didn't get the job.
A few days later they rang me & told me to come down the store, I asked if it was for another interview & the woman said No, You got the job. :confused:

The only people that wear suits at Tesco are the Management & that is only so the other workers know which people not to bother asking for help/assistant etc :p
 
To be honest, if you are at the interview stage and have passed their stupid psychometric test, you have to merely show up in a shirt and tie, demonstrate you aren't a complete idiot, and make sure the available shifts suit.

It shouldn't be hard, you are 90% there.
 
Trousers, shirt and tie, I'm assuming this is a part time job for after school?

This.

Are you guys seriously suggesting a full blown suit for an interview at Tescos? The manager interviewing you wants a bum he can boss around for minimum wage, not some potential future Einstein.

For my current job I was told a tshirt and jeans at the interview would be fine. I wore a smart shirt and jeans and felt overdressed compared to the guys interviewing me who were of course in tshirts and jeans! I guess it depends on the job I'm just lucky I work in a casual environment.
 
'A full blown suit' has now replaced my previous most liked phrase in this thread which was 'fancy salary job'.

Is everyone saying to not wear a suit a chimney sweep from the Victorian age because I'm getting a really strong Mary Poppins vibe here.
 
Dude...no it's not. Boots' would be if you were saying 'the boots' soles were worn out'. Although Boots' is acceptable and certainly more acceptable than 'Tesco ability to make profits has been hampered by rising staff costs and sick leave'.

Well it would be:

"The ability of Tesco to make profits has been hampered by rising staff costs and sick leave"

or something to that effect
