Ok so after weeks of hunting I've finally got an interview at my local co-op. I've dug out some smart black trousers and a sort of fitted blouse. However, the blouse is a bit big on me now and looks a bit frumpy/schoolish. I've got a fitted black top with little white polka dots which looks quite smart so I don't know if I should go for that instead?
Also, I don't have any smart black shoes because my other ones got holes in the soles so I threw them away and haven't bought any others. I've got some plain red leather flat shoes, would they be ok, or is red a bit too bold?
Sorry but I only got offered the interview an hour ago and it's for tomorrow at 1.30 so I'm a bit rushed.

as long as you look clean, and smart, i wouldnt worry
oh, and good luck!
But as long as you make an effort, they're happy. I think the trick to getting a job where I was, was to say you're a people person / customer oriented / friendly or something along those lines. They wanted us to be almost ambassadors and provide 'service excellence' all the time. Whether that was the case or not... the supervisor tier was absolutely dire. People who got the jobs because they had been there so long rather than really excelling at their jobs, because all the good supervisors get promoted to manager. /rant
Oh well, I'm well chuffed though! Got training tomorrow and pick up my uniform!!
Could you not keep it on as a job for in the holidays? You mihgt also be able to get a transfer to a store near uni. It's always good to have a p/t job at uni for extra cash
