The process seems a lot more straight forward then when I applied several years ago. My procedure was apply online, group interview, in store interview with the store manager, then in store interview with a department manager, though I didn't understand the point in having 2 in store interviews...

Or paid meeting? I remember reading something like that...

Does anyone know when these supposed paid votes for the new EBA are? Wouldn't mind some extra cash and the chance to vote No to more of their crap... I've pretty much had it with these bastards, 2 down sick and the top of the schedule wrote 'Do not replace any sick shifts'. 7-10 with one...

You don't need to be all that bubbly and all, and to be honest sometimes people like that get beyond my nerve. Dress well, get involved without being annoyingly flamboyant. So they will most likely ask questions like what other companies that are part of Woolworths Limited. Show them you know...

There should be a clause in the EBA where if you work the night before Christmas and New Years eve, and give notice for intention to not be on, they can not unreasonable refuse it, think it's something about required staffing levels I think. Had to work Christmas Eve and New Years eve last...

I wish they'd all just accept it instead of wanting to speak to a manager (wasn't even a proper duty manager on :D and if it was I'd pretty much be protected), it's just the principle of it, if it wasn't as busy I'd be fine. If they talk to my CSM I'm in crap....

Not worth the stress of 2IC (assuming you'd be non-salaried) for a few extra dollars an hour. Kind of rather being a normal operator over supervisor during the day. Just out of curiosity, are there any rules about using EDR every $30 when shopping? Customer had a go at me when I forgot to stop...

Is there a link to the new EBA? If not, any details for the weekly wage in NSW, and the junior rate brackets? Can't seem to find anything when I work, and then there is never anyone in the office, so I end my shift with at times upto $10 000 in the till. As for tea breaks...use to be fun...
