I'm really excited. - I'm going for an interview on September 11th for a job as one of those lovely people who answer the phones at Bid-up-tv and talk to the customers. My job description involves calling back winning bidders and getting their details. There in Acton West London and i'm in North London so it will take a while to get there - but I don't mind!

7.00 p/h working six days a week. I've had my phone interview and it's looking good.

Not so much a foot in the door - more like a small toe.


What did they ask you on the telephone interview?

Just out of curiousity.

Thanks,
Martin



Basically they asked what experience I had in customer services and usual 'What qualities would you bring to the company.
I went today to the interview which was very informal. We had a female speaker telling us that Peter Simon works on the channel and that he's really nice and chats to everyone outside on the street when he's having a fag. She really was quite excited about this. 'DID ANYONE WATCH DOUBLE DARE?' she asks enthusiastically. Then - Silence. A lone hand went up, it was mine. She nearly cried.
I find out tomorrow if I've got it. Had a presentation on a projector all about Sit up tv, the parent company of Bid Up and Price Drop. All the offices are brand new and the MDs are the original creators of On Digital
