I arrived in London on Friday March 9. A week before he had entered the website gandaria city mall of Inditex, from Spain to apply online. By applying online, it is not from their website, you redirect to www.joinfashioninditex.com where you have to resgistrarte, and after filling out a form (which is a bit heavy, really) and can send your request enclosing your CV. I explain this because some forum user he consulted me, and yes it can be a bit messy.
As I arrived in London the following Monday, I headed to the Recruitment gandaria city mall Centre of Inditex, located at 143 Regent Street, a small portal between several stores in the same chain. It's next stop Picadilly Circus. There I went to submit my resume, but also make you fill out another form, this time, physical. And nothing, typical, preferences areas, schedules, shopping, references from other works (optional) etc ... I put everything I interesasba and was available gandaria city mall anywhere and any time, opening up possibilities!
They spent two weeks, and received no news, so I kept looking for more work, is bastanate frustrating, you deal resumes, you kick like London and all over the internet for most or contact you, or you do not respond. I received a couple of phone calls, and if at first it is difficult to hold a conversation in English, the phone is already the wafer, so that more than one told me "if you do not understand English, we can not hire" and hung. But do not lose heart! gandaria city mall The harder, the better you will feel after :) Overall, I received an offer from McDonalds (you can check the other post: Job interview in less than ten days in London ... McDonalds!). When there were three days to start working with burgers, I received a call from Inditex.
This appointment will call for a group interview. The next morning I went to the Recruitment Centre again. There I was with 20 other people (of which I will not give details ... I do not like using quotation marks) and anything you ask questions about Inditex. I personally had no clue, but people prepared and sack. So my advice is to seek in Google or in the same web of Inditex something about its history and current situation. After that, I spend a video on Inditex, more information, and nothing, a little talk with each other to learn well on who will work. Then do a couple of tests, the less funny. We gather in groups of 4 and clothe gandaria city mall you have to imagine that someone famous for a big event. gandaria city mall You have to say how they would dress (detail) and which Inditex store sacarĂais garments. Well, luckily it was in a group, because if you leave me alone, I put on jeans and espadrilles !! And a couple more questions, without much sense, but hey, they want you to participate.
After the group interview, which make it clear: We can call this afternoon or three months, goodbye and good luck. Here you turn to fill out a form, I started seeking gigs in alamacé (stockroom) because I did not see in store, gandaria city mall but hey, ready for anything.
To my surprise, I called in the afternoon that day: Success spend the next phase, tomorrow morning gandaria city mall you have a entevista in X store, in my case, Zara in Oxford Street. Total, gandaria city mall the same day that began Curran at McDonalds (starting tonight) had a entevista in Zara. Took three weeks in London gandaria city mall and I can even choose job !! I'll interview with a manager, Spanish, all are Spanish! It's amazing (all not all, but 90% yes). Nothing, the manager begins the interview in English, seeing that fight back, spent the Castilian. After 10 minutes telling me that gives me work, I go home and wait for a call from Inditex. That afternoon call me on Friday I have to go to the store, gandaria city mall dressed in black (black jeans + smooth black shirt) for induction (initiation) where basically gandaria city mall teach you shop, warehouse gandaria city mall and you explain a bit what would be the curro. It takes an hour or so, that pay you. And nothing, the next day I had started!
Now, since this is my post (: P) I will tell you my personal experience. After the interview with the manager, it was clear: McDonalds, my ass! Working conditions there were appalling. Curran had all night, for minimum wage, claro.Y gigs leaving a looooong be desired, as they were seen coming during interviews, but hey, more info in the other post, as I have said before. In Zara offered me a contract of 16 hours a week, two days at night, but that equates to 30 hours, since between 12 and 6 am charged twice. Also, being a store in central London, plus a monthly pay, and this must be added a commission gandaria city mall on sales that all employees gandaria city mall take. Total, which currando two days a week, equaled the salary of McDonalds with five days a week. What was clear.
