Hey!
I've got an interview to be a Chalet Assistant on the 31st May. I;ve got a small tattoo on my wrist, does anyone know if this will be a problem? I'm not keen on the idea of hiding it as that's kind of lying... Thanks |

I just got a job interview for a chalet assistant.
Just wondering what you did your presentation on and how you did it?

Kayla, aww thanks, I proper flumped it up as well. To be honest hun, you could have stood there and made random noises and you'd have still got through based on that cake haha!! So made up you got the jobs, yas were sooo lovely. What happened over you and the other half, they offer you the joint chalet job in the end (just being nosey :P).

Lee- your presentation was awesome!!! Im so nicking that red bull thing.. and nobody ate my mountain cake!
For anybody who is nervous.... DONT BE! the interview was very fun and laid back. dress professionally, but just be yourself, GET THERE ON TIME!! and if you put the effort in to just bother to find ANYTHING for your task youll do great. someone brought a wooden elephant purely for the fact it had NOTHING to do with the job but to show her skills of being creative and having the gift of the gab and to be comfortable in any situation and she did great and im sure shes been hired. someone else juggled while wearing a bike helmet... im sure he was hired too. dont worry too much. I choked up and openly admitted i was nervous and my mind was blank but i laughed it off and had a good time and today me and my boyfriend have just been offered the jobs in meribel france!!!!!!!!!!! Im super excited! Hopefully everyone else was successful aswell and I hope i see some of you during the season! if anyone else is going to be in meribel add me in on fb. it would be nice to know a few people before i get out there! kayla marshall |

I got a posistion with Esprit bar manager. So excited :) How did everyone else do?
Thanks to everyone for the radvice, especially Shanks. Here's my advice for anyone with interviews - dress smart, arrive early and chat to people waiting (it makes you less nervous in the group stages). Make sure you plan a quick talk about yourself, your reasoning behind why you wanted to apply etc. Don't overly worry about your presentation, just practise if you're going to talk. For example, I did a quick flair with a practise bottle and a little red bull pour trick i've picked up, someone else baked an AMAZING mountain cake. Just be yourself, that's really all I can say. Read up on the companies, they will ask you and make sure you speak up. The interviewrs are lovely and make you feel comfotable, so honestly don't worry about feeling under pressure etc. Just be yourself, be natural and friendly. Everyone will be nervous, it's only natural :p

Yehh! I know that feeling! It's horrible. Just try to push it out your mind!
I applied for a bar supervisor... I've got a position in Courchevel, at the hotel Les Anemones at1850... should be good! |

Being nervous is natural! Everyone is, some people just hide it better than others!
Wow, that sounds like quite an impressive presentation! I'm sure you did well! I'm sure you'll hear from them soon! Good luck for when you do :) |

Hey, I was incredibly nervous doing the "introduce yourself" bit, I needn't be but I just got a bit anxious so didn't manage to say everything I wanted to. :( Then it went round again and I had to do my task, I applied for chalet housekeeping but was unsure what to do so I did bottle flaring to demonstrate I like learning new skills, can learn fast and can follow a routine.. then I did towel origami and made a swan out of a bath towel, then I presented a cake I baked as my role also includes serving food so I thought may as well. I baked a chocolate cola cake (has half a can of coke in it!)
They seemed to like it an I was less nervous but still a bit twitchy. Then it was the group questions, luckily I prepared and got my voice heard (felt more relaxed then) then it was the written which I think went okay. Not heard back from them yet so it's a relief that you heard after a few days! I'd hate to of ruined the interview because of my nervous start.

Check a previous post of mine - it's got some info about the sorta presentations that happens, and what i reckon is the best sorta way to do it; as well as the company info stuff... You need to have some knowledge, it helps! I didn't when I did it and looked a bit foolish.
Laura - How'd it go? Don't worry, I didn't hear back from mine for about 3-5 days... I'm impressed people have heard the day after! |

I had an interview a couple of weeks ago and got offered a job the following day.
Don't worry too much about the presentation, it does seem a bit daunting because the task isn't very specific... which is because they want you to interpret it in your own way. I would suggest taking something with you to talk about and focus on selling yourself and your skills to them. If you cant think of anything immediately relevant to your job role (ie hotel assistant) then maybe try something humorous or something that makes you as a person stand out. You are sure to make a good impression if you dress suitably, go well prepared, get involved and smile/be friendly. |
