Tesco/ asda work

How Do?
does anyone know how to get into these places full time? currently in Tesco a lot in Livingston, which ain’t bad as RDC’s go and wouldn’t mind full time.

Ta

they usually take folk on from agency work tbh or by friends of people who work there.

i work now and again at tesco in livi aswell

who you in there with?

N.A.S. pretty good blokes though Ive had sod all in a week. Tried Monarch but I wouldn’t sell them my soul, their guys seem to get a bum deal.

im with nas aswell, not had anything all month but ive been on holiday, been with them for about a year and a half now though. always been good to me especially at xmas time.

though your only way in usually is agency

scanny77 is also an x nas man and tesco guy

At the moment you have no chance, but the usual route is with the agency first and maybe a start. I know of drivers who have been on the agency for four years and no sign of a full time job. The big supermarkets prefer to employ large numbers of agency drivers as there are more bums than seats at the moment. The use of agency staff to make up a large part of the workforce on a long term basis is just plain wrong.

was on Nas the other day there reregistering for some work. … only looking for a day or two a week but the guys in there say things have slowed right down now the xmas rush is over … they said the tesco work is on a real go slow now…so aint holding out for any work soon as i know there is more deserving guys out there who are looking for a full weeks work …

As been said … best road in would be through Monarch… :imp:
as it go’s tesco is a very easy job… the Rdc is less than 10 mins walking from my house …which is very handy… :wink:

cheers for the heids up all. Can’t say I’d even consider Monarch. Had an interview with them before and suffice it to say, we understood each other! Haven’t heard anything good about them yet - still I hear McDonalds are recruiting another 5000 staff. Every silver lining…

See y’all at the broo machine sometime! (jist milk mind). :wink:

nae chance of seein me at the broo machine, i dinnie drink coffee or tea lol

When I had my frank exchange with Monarch, sorry interview, they mentioned they done asda too. Spoke to driverhire a few days ago and they put drivers in too.

I work at Falkirk,not agency though. The job is really easy,decent motors and most of the managers are easy to get on with!

If you need any more info,give us a shout!! :wink:
