Posted By: LeanneDan
Date Posted: 04 November 2018 at 18:13
| They said they'll let us know on Monday. It was a really good day. Enjoyed it. So glad I met up with a few off this forum really helped with the nerves. The presentation is a bit nerve racking and I really struggled to talk for 2 mins. Ballsed it up a bit haha. You pick a card with a topic on and have to talk about 3 features and benefits on that subject, same as the Tui video really. |

Breakdown on the TUI assessment which I have just completed, hope it helps :) First there is an introduction into the company and a little bit about the role of the TUI Scene rep. then you introduce yourself to everyone. then you are given 12 scenarios which could happen overseas which you must put in order of what you would do first. then they split you into groups and you have to discuss your answers with the group. Then there is a role play activity where they pretend to be a customer complaining and you have to try and resolve it as best as possible. Then there is a lunch break where people are sent home. Next they go further into the role of the rep and things youll be doing and also benefits of working for TUI such as the pay, commission and uniform etc.Then there's another role play activity where you hav 10 minutes to prepare a sales pitch of an excursion. once everyones done this, there is another break where more people are sent home. finally it's the 1-2-1 interviews where they are mainly questions like "name a time you have worked well in a team" Good luck! :)

| I have my TUI assessment on 1st December, i worked for Thomas cook in 2017. The Thomas Cook assessment day sounds very similar but they didn't send anybody home. Started where the group of around 50 were split into 3 or 3 groups..as a team you had to prioritise a list of activities they are just looking to see if you can interact as part of a group without taking complete control of the activity. Then you have a few minutes to prepare a presentation for the group to try to sell a place you have been (I thought i messed up on this as i got so nervous I started shaking), then role play of complaints and 1 to 1 interviews. Good luck everyone...their not looking for perfection just people who are willing to work hard and show they want the job xx |

Hi Beth, When I went it was a combined group, the only people who were taken to a seperate room for their assessment were people who applied as kids rep and leisure and entertainment staff. Just be yourself and enjoy the day it's a really good experience! Good luck x |

|
Posted By: bethanshep
Date Posted: 21 November 2018 at 19:49
| When I went for admin we didn't have to do any presentions there was about 6 years ago and probs changed now. When I went for TC this year didn't have to do it either because I was doing admin! X |
Posted By: FTownsley
Date Posted: 21 November 2018 at 19:57
|
Bethan, did you go to Manchester for a Tui admin assessment day in 2013?? So you never done a presentation this year for TC? cause they sent me an email telling me to prepare one and I emailed them back asking if I needed to do it because I had applied for admin and they said yes everyone has to do it 
|
Posted By: bethanshep
Date Posted: 21 November 2018 at 20:01
| Hiya yes think I did... Can't remember the year but was in Manchester! Nope I didn't they said they will be presentation on the email but as admin I had to do an admin task! X |
Posted By: FTownsley
Date Posted: 21 November 2018 at 20:06
Yeah i recognise your name, sure we were there together  Best thing I ever done and worst was giving it up last year, hence why I am applying to do it again!! Awwww hopefully I don't need to do it then, I'll prepare one just in case but keep my fingers crossed I don't need to!! |
