thx ~ went there and came back ~ got thru my 1st and 2nd interview ~ just have to do crim and reference check ~

that craiglist link earlier said content have been deleted by the user lol. i guess they reposted it ~ but holy crap.. there were over 200 ppl there... 2-4pm? lol i got there at 2.. finish my 2nd interview at 4:30.. the lineup outside was still huge.. and there's probably still another 100 ppl upstair waiting to be interviewed

trip 07-25-2010 03:21 PM

god i was there till 7, had my 2nd interview not even 5 minutes after the first one. they're not looking to hire very many people in comparison to how many people showed up

terkan 07-25-2010 07:37 PM

ya from what i heard.. they didn't expect that many ppl to find out about it.. on the bright side at least they stayed and interview ppl until the line was gone and not left at 4

tacobell 07-25-2010 08:31 PM

did you guys have to go through any sort of testing? typing test, data entry test, listening test, etc?

terkan 07-26-2010 02:27 AM

the first interview is more bout how you handle customers and what's ur attitude personality like ~ the second one is a little more technical ~ but no testing or anything

anyone else?

did u go to the open house on saturday?
there was no last interview? just 2?
i heard there may be a panel interview (3rd interview) but if you didnt get one then i am wrong.


i got a call from them on tuesday to supply them with another piece of id so im waiting now on a callback.

JLASA 08-02-2010 12:10 PM

Shaw's policy for all new hires is that they start them as Part time...but the HR person told me usually PT hires get FT hours....but thats just their policy. Guaranteed 20 hours a week.

No i didnt go to the open house, i just applied online like a month ago and went through the 2 interviews and got called.

the second interview they said, if you get a call then you get hired...if you got an email then thats not good news

terkan 08-03-2010 04:51 PM
