I logged into my account on "existing applicants", clicked on "make a booking", then selected NSW Metro and it said "Sorry, there are no vacant events available for the location you selected. Please try again later."

I got another email today and said that sessions are now available.

I booked my session for the 23rd of March (next Wednesday). This is perfect because Wednesday is my day off from uni.

anyone actually got a job out of them? and where?
I got a job at Target. The wait isn't worth it sometimes. That was my second application but it was for a specific store this time. First time I applied, I went to the group interview, got an email saying I was successful and then 6 months later never heard from them. I emailed them and they never replied so I withdrew my application and applied for an opening at Target. Their system sucks! :vcross:
I've read about a few people getting jobs in the other coles myer group interview thread but that's like 60 pages! Don't think u want to read through all that.
Good Luck :)

I just put down what I thought my availability would be at the time but that changed quite a bit.
I put Tuesday 3pm-8pm
Wednesday 2pm-12am (can't work anymore)
Thursday 6am-12am
Friday 6am-12am (can't work anymore)
Saturday 6am-12am
Sunday 6am-12am

My store closes at 5 so basically I can only work 3 days a week now. I think availability makes a huge difference. I doubt they would've hired me with my availabilities now.

I think I just got a job at coles.... I went for the interview this morning at the store, and I got sent the online induction, so would that mean I was successful? They haven't rung me or anything yet.

Oh well, may as well start the induction thing..... it's a good way of procrastinating on my uni work lol
