    Default How to tell if you got the job

    If you follow my threads you know I work at the airport. However, the tourists season is going down so I’m on the hunt for another job. I just left an interview for a typical retail job and I can’t tell whether or not I got the job. I want to say I did get the job because she started telling me about post interview things (ie drug tests). I asked her about the dress code and she told me. Not to mention I did the application on Friday, called yesterday, and got an interview today.

    i feel like I got the job but idk for sure. What are some surefire ways to tell if you got the job? Also how can you tell when a job is bullshit?

    To answer my own question you can tell when a job is bs if they hire quickly or if they’re “always hiring”

    retail is always hiring just like clubs are, high turnover in general. unless its high end retail that pays great commission, its still high turnover. if they told you answers beyond we will let you know, 9 times out of 10 you have the job.

    Well technically unless a job is on the upper management level (where contracts are signed) then they are “always hiring” not because they are bs but because both parties can end employment at anytime.

    Since the employer is ALWAYS looking out for itself, having fresh new hires on deck, always seeking resumes, is a way to ensure the position stays filled, filled with qualified people, and people don’t have to work 2+ roles which burns out existing employees

    They should have sent you a welcome or onboarding email

    I hope you got the job. If you don't hear from them in a couple days ( schedule ) just reach out and thank them for the interview and say you'd love to get started soon. Being willing to " show " is the main thing.

    Years ago fast food had 100% annual turnover among managers and 300% employees.
