Hi, i picked up a leaflet in HMV looking for lots of extra staff in their stores. I went on their website and read up about the seasonal temporary staff and it looks quite good.
But it says its 37.5 hours work a week, which because i'm at school it would be quite hard to do, but would be able to during the hols.
On the online application form it says that retail experience is desirable, and i don't have any, it says that i need working experience where i have interacted with people is neede, which i don't have. I don't think having a paper round gives me much interaction .
Do you think its worth still applying, and maybe they will let me work at weekends and then the full amont once the hols start? or dont shops do that kinda thing?
thanks for any advice

You don't need experience if you don't have any. Just be presentable, friendly...just think what you would like to see in a shop. No rude assistants, or pushy ones...etc.
if i apply and they don't want me then will they phone me telling me, or will they just not contact me/?
thanks alot.

thanks
If they dont want you, they probably just wont contact you.
