[Anonymous]

But... Linux is free... You can pay 75 dollars for a help manual and help from real people, though.

[Anonymous]

Good luck man! What's the job? Maybe I can give you some interview tips or something.

[LFD]

Subway Sandwiches, I feel like such a sell out but they pay good, and I need the cash.

these are the interview tips I have got so far

1. Wear light colored clothing
2. Shave
3. answer questions yes sir/ma'am
4. Manacure
5. Don't speak slang, ebonics or southern land
6. Act innocent.

[Anonymous]

They're going to look for eye contact, which is very important when it comes to working in fast food. (Even if Subway isn't fast food, you'll still need eye contact) Just remeber to make eye contact, talk clearly, answer with "yes" or "no" an avoid any slang where possible.

[Anonymous]

Prented I'm giving the interview. Anwser the following questions:

1. Why do you want to work for subway?

2. You noticed a coworker giving out a cold cut to a client, and you also noticed the meat wasn't very fresh. What woul dbe the best thing to do?

3. Does the name Jarel ring a bell?

4. Where do you see yourself in 6 months?

5. How many of our subs have 6 grams of fat or less?

6. How many kinds of bread do we have? Can you name them?

7. Are you available to work weekends and/or weeknights?

8. What is you best quality?

9. Name one of your faults?

10. If you start working at 10:00, when can we expect you to walk though the door?

11. Tell me about a situation where you felt like a team player

12.(Last one!) Tell me of a situation where you showed some leadership.


Anwser these and I'll give you some comments. I work in HR.

[Anonymous]

Don't forget the "What is your best subject" and "What subject could you use improvment in?". Those are two that they usualy ask.

Now... Judge, What exactly is "HR". My logical thinking would be "Home Room", but that doesn't make sense.

[Demosthenes]

HR == "Human Resources"

[LFD]

Prented I'm giving the interview. Anwser the following questions:

1. Why do you want to work for subway?

Because I need the money to pay for school and save for college

2. You noticed a coworker giving out a cold cut to a client, and you also noticed the meat wasn't very fresh. What woul dbe the best thing to do?

I would ask for the client to give the sandwhich back and I would make them a new one.

3. Does the name Jarel ring a bell?

No, but Jared does.

4. Where do you see yourself in 6 months?

I see myself working at what ever restuarant hires me.

5. How many of our subs have 6 grams of fat or less?
7
6. How many kinds of bread do we have? Can you name them?

White, Wheat and different kinds of gourmet bread.

7. Are you available to work weekends and/or weeknights?

Yes Sir, I am available to work weekends and weeknights, until school starts back up then I will only be able to work weeknights and weekends.

8. What is you best quality?
I am responisible.
9. Name one of your faults?

........

10. If you start working at 10:00, when can we expect you to walk though the door?

atleast 9:45

11. Tell me about a situation where you felt like a team player

...........
12.(Last one!) Tell me of a situation where you showed some leadership.

My leadership skills have shown most when I was in charge of leading my group of 4 in a research project

Anwser these and I'll give you some comments. I work in HR.

Ok, they are answered....What can I say, I am not aware of any major fualts I have or have been a team player.

[Anonymous]

Well, for the first one I'd say "experience". They'll tell you that the only reason why you should be working for them is experience. Given that they know there's not much money involved. You'll impress them if you tell them "experience" and not them telling you.

[LFD]

Thanks for the tip Neb, I'll keep that in mind.

[Anonymous]

OK, here's my analysis:

1. Never mention $$$ in an interview. NEVER. The only time you should talk about $$$ is when they bring it up. However, I though that the whole "Saving to get an education" bit could pass and would probably impress some. If only they knew what a kick ass computer you're gonna get! LOL!

2. Well it's the right thing to do. But you should also mention something about verify all the meats to make sure they are fresh and replacing the ones that are not. And perhaps you should report the incident to your supervisor. Maybe someone else did not do theiur job previously. It's important for the supervisor to know these things (Unless the supervisor is responsible for the meat. Then you just shut up!)

3. Good! You're awake!

4. Ouch... Don't say that please! What you are saying is " I don't really care that much for subway, but I'll work here if they hire me". You are saying that you'll take a job from anyone (cause you need the $$$). However, you should focus the anwser on subway. Say something like "We'll I'll be in school then, but I see myslef working here on weekends or weeknights. I'm a loyal employee".

5. Yup

6. Question 5 and 6 are really not thatimportant and I doubt they would ask that in the first place. My point was simply that you should reaserch the business before you show up in case they do ask something about themselves.

7. Showing that you are flexible is essential. Good!

8. Useless response. You must explain in detail a situation that you where in that ilustrates that you are indeed responsible.

9. This is a popular one. Did you just blank out, or you don't want us to know? lol! Anyway, the key to this question is to take a weakness and turn it into a strenght so that you end up on a positive note. The typical reply to this is "I'm too perfectionist. People say I'm always trying too hard and I always want everything done right the first time." So you get the idea of how you should anwser this question. Now be creative and use something else than "perfectionist"

10. Perfect

11. Bet you didn't feel like a team player when you skipped this one!!!

12. Again, you need to describe in more details. Give the whole scenario. Tell them about the guy in the group that was always late or never showed up, or never had is share of the work done. Tell them what you did to change this (But don't say anything if you just kicked is ass!!!). Anyway, you get the idea. Good luck man!

[LFD]

Thanks, Judge I will keep your wise words in mind for my interview on Monday. I really have no major fualts other than I am a really nice guy in person and I have NO agressive tendencies, but saying that during an interview sounds incredibly pathetic.

and #4 I would never say that during a real interview, but I couldn't resist doing it now.

thanks again

[Anonymous]
