Expect it to be hard graft. They pay well, but expect a lot from their workers. As I'd expect any company tbf. I've also heard the interview process is intense. Personally, I would get no job satisfaction from working in Lidl, but if you think you will enjoy it, which you obviously will or just to pay the bills, then go for it. Dress smart. Don't underestimate this. Don't wear clothes that are too tight or don't fit, nice shoes etc. Show curiosity and use some reverse psychology. Turn it on them and ask them what makes them love their job. Be different. And remember, they're interviewing you, but you're also interviewing them. It works both ways to see if the job will be compatible for you both. Good luck Last edited by ThomasC; 01-07-2021 at 04:21 PM. |

By the way, I love your pic of Denver.
Can't wait for the next season of Money Heist. It is so awesome. |

Anyway I guess my point is - even though I was mainly there climbing that grubby ladder to pay the bills and buy the kids new shoes - I wouldn’t have blagged the job I have now without that confidence, experience and evidence of managing responsibility. I’m now faaar away from dirty retail and love my job. Ethical company, massively flexible, huge scope for progression internally, massive springboard if I do decide to move on etc. I guess a long winded way of saying, you don’t have to have immediate job satisfaction if you have a trajectory that might lead there… it’s all good experience and you never know what will come up. To be fair I was in longer than I planned - I said “no more than 5 years” to myself when I started but then was being eyeballed for manager by that time, so I said “ok no more than 10 years “. Got out at 9.5 years. Skin of my teeth Last edited by Toy Soldier; 02-07-2021 at 07:33 AM. |
