The streak continues.

I had an interview this morning with Beales. Beales is a large-format department store, very similar to the Bay in Canada. The store I applied at is quite large - six stories. They are hiring for a number of positions.

I dropped off my c.v. - stands for ciriculum vitae (what the Brits call a resumè) - and filled out the extensive application form yesterday around noon. I applied for a full-time position in the housewares department. They called me about an interview only a few hours later, which we arranged to be for this morning at 10:30. I was quite confident before and during the interview, as I have extensive retail experience. Besides that, I've never interviewed for a position I didn't get.

The interview went amazingly, as expected. I was showed around the housewares department briefly by that department's manager and then her and a lady from human resources asked me typical interview questions for half an hour. Not even ten minutes after I left the store, the human resources lady called to offer me the job.
