    I had my telephone interview today. I'm not sure what kind of academic standard they expect for their 2 graduate roles but the 24k + golden hello is very appealing to graduates.

    They said they would contact me by phone if I was successful. It's an exciting opportunity but I believe they have twelve graduate slots available for Trainee Buyers so it will be tough.

    Hi,

    I passed the telephone interview but was told through an email, (a week ago). The next stage is a psycometic test. Fun i know. I just did it on Monday there and still waiting as the deadline was tuesday.

    Ive done these tests before but this one was extrememy hard. maybe luck of draw i dunno.

    anyone else got to this stage?

    Can anyone remember what degree classification was needed?

    I don't want to end up through to the final stage and then find out it was only because of that I cudn't get through.

    I've got my assessment centre on Friday, so I'm starting to get nervous. The bit where you have to bring three items that say something about yourself but can still fit into a Boots carrier bag has got me quite worried. Anyone else done this already? What did you bring?
