I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Co-op
Interview
Handed my CV in was contacted immediately due to knowing someone who already worked there. Asked to come in for an interview, was interviewed by two managers. Basic questions, felt as though i had the job and the questions were just mandatory.

Question 1
No difficult questions,
What would you do if a customer asked for your help finding a particular item
What 3 things make good customer service
preffers the application form method. however a cv with it really helps. Dont ask for a certain amount of hours you get given 10 but with work 30-50 hours depending so if you become ill your screwed. you will get a call from the DM or supervisor about when to come for an interveiw then it is just a general chat and a questionaire to fill out
I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Co-op in Aug 2010
Interview
More just a formal Q and A than an actual interview. Judging by some of the staff I worked with, there is no vetting for professionalism or ability. Seems like they are just crying for people a the moment.
