Hey. I'm applying there too (no work experience) , how old are you?
Here are a few good questions to study:* How do you handle stress and pressure?

* Tell me about yourself.

* Do you prefer to work independently or on a team?
* What interests you about this job?
* Why do you want this job?
* Are you overqualified for this job?

I have recently Applied for a job at McDonald'ss and they have since contacted me to let me know they wish to interview me. They will be conducting an OJE or On Job Evaluation, which means i may be working for a short time for them to assess if I am right for the job. What should I wear? would a normal shirt and tie be alright considering i may be working with food?

How to Prepare for a Job Interview



Recommended Answer:
My first job was at mcdonalds too.
I went for my interview in a white button up shirt, and black pants.
There not overly picky there, but try to look good anyway.
If they want you training the day of your interview.
Then that's practically saying you've already got the job.
They'll had a work uniform ready for you.
And will ask you to pay $20 for it.
But you don't have to. =)
Good luck! I hope you enjoy your new job.

How to Improve Your Job Interview Skills



Recommended Answer:
make sure you stay relaxed, smile a lot, and be really polite.
also be excited about the company. if they ask you why you want to work at walgreens (which there's a 87% chance they will) do not say it seems like a good job. i did that once.. big mistake lol.
instead you should be really enthusiastic and say how you always go to walgreens because they have the best products. your whole family has always shopped there and the employees were always extremely nice and helpful.
something like that.
they'll also ask what you would change about yourself if you could. the classic answer is that you would do more community service.
ahah i know... cheesy! but you can say anything along those lines. something you know they would want to hear.
also think of what you would say if they ask you to tell them about yourself.
they'll also ask what you would do in certain scenarios. such as what would you do if a customer complained about a product? or what would you do if a coworker was talking badly to you about the boss.
just try and think about what you would say to all these questions and you'll be fine :)
good luck! and since you posted this 16 hours ago, i'm probly too late. haha oh well it helped me writing this stuff out too cuz i have an interview in a few days :)

Job Interview Questions: Are 4inch heels too high for a job interview?

I just bought a pair of plain black heels for job interviewing. I thought they were perfect but when I got home and did some internet searches I found most people think 4 inch heels are too high for interviews. I hate low heels, personally I think flats are better than low heels. The shoes I got are the most basic looking black leather pumps so I thought they would be fine. The rest of the outfit is a black pant suit, your average interview fare. Thoughts? Btw, I'm interviewing for admin and receptionist jobs.

Job Interview Motivation - Five Secrets To Getting Jazzed About The Interview



Recommended Answer:
I think if you wore dress slacks, then 4 inch heels would be fine. If, however, you were a dress/skirt then go with a lower heel so you don't attract too much attention to your legs. I work in the corporate world of insurance, and I wear heels to work most days, some as high as five inches. They make my legs longer and look leaner, and I usually pair them with dress slacks. If I am wearing a business skirt/dress, then I go with a lower heel, usually 2.5 inches so that I don't draw too much attention to my legs and feet. The heels you have will be fine if you pair them with the right outfit.

Job Interview Advice


  • Be conservative. The heels are too high. Usually, if you question something, you already know the answer. You question whether or not the heels are too high, you already know they are. If you look in the mirror and wonder if something is too tight or too low cut, or too short, know that the answer is yes.
    Your resume got you an opportunity to interview. The interview is where you get the job. First impressions are very important. 4" heels will give the wrong impression. There are no re-do's.
    Lots of luck

  • I would definitely not wear those heels. I have been reading all over that the best way to look for a job interview is as conservative as possible. You do not want to appear racy or skanky! dont worry, you can wear those heels another time, just remember that first impressions are very important when it comes to getting a job. if its a job youd really like to have, just suck it up and wear that lame pair of lower heels, but in the end itll pay off!

  • I would have to say it depends. Typically the rule of thumb is 2-3 inches. But I doubt they will be paying much attention to the hight of your heels. They will be more interested in your resume.

    I think it depends on how you are in them. Are you sort of short in height? Do you walk well in them? I've seen women that look horrible in 4 inch heels and other women who rock them and look fantastic.

    I wouldnt say no completely. I think it depends on other factors. If you walk well in them and it goes with your outfit really well...I dont think it can hurt.

  • Yes, they are too high. Despite some people's ideas, very high heels have negative connotations & with jobs so tight right now you need every plus on your side. Wear flats then (there are very cute ones); also very high heels are often not allowed on jobs due to danger of twisting or breaking an ankle or falling.

  • they'll be fine as long as they aren't too flashy or if you wear them with a short skirt.
    but it sounds like the ones you got are perfect. heels show confidence and authority.

  • Only pornostars where high heels for job interviews

  • Only if you're gonna be a stripper or my secretary.

  • Its not the heels they are looking for. What can you offer the company?

  • they are fine , especially if the boss is male , he he he
