[QUOTE=Sweepy;21434382]What? Any examples I can ask like? Only one I can even think of is 'When do I start ;D'[/QUOTE] You'll know what to ask because the employer will kind of set you up to ask questions if you were paying attention. One good question to ask is "If a costumer does XYZ, how will I handle that situation?"
[QUOTE=Emz;21434423]Always shake the hand of the Interviewer when you go in (make sure your hand isn't clammy though.)[/QUOTE] Hand shakes are quite important. Don't forget to shake his/her hand before and after the interview.
Make sure to have some questions you want to ask them, it shows you're keen and plan ahead, as well as willing to learn.
For a supermarket job, just let them know that you can speak english, read, have basic mathematical skills, aren't irresponsible and/or a drug addict, and can be communicate with courtesy & clarity. Those are the required qualifications for that job.
Dont talk about your problems or your family

Go in dressed as a middle aged Indian man with messy stubble, unkempt hair and bad body odour, and talk in a very heavy, hard to understand Indian accent. My local Tesco seems to employ a lot of people like that so you'll most likely get the job. [editline]11:48PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Sweepy;21434783]Ahhaa I seem to qualify there then.

Whatever you do don't be ugly.

But instead of a airsoft gun bring a real AK.
[QUOTE=Sweepy;21434005]So just like a plain black skirt and blouse? I have quite a few piercings also, and the left side of my hair shaved, so I'm guessing it will be best to hide them as much as possible?[/QUOTE] Submit your resignation form, you're officially fired
Update: Just got asked a few pointless questions such as, 'Explain an experience where you have had to create new relationships/ learn something new/ been under pressure/ take control of a situation' She said they would get back to me within a few days *fingers crossed*
Nice one
