Application approved!

I can officially say I have a pre-screen interview once again!!

I received my email 2 days after the applications closed (pretty much when everyone did), and it was sent by the new recruiter Michelle Biesters!

My email looked something like this:

I was at work in the midst of a 10 hour shift so I was very excited to find this out on my break! My manager was very supportive and is making sure I don't have any shifts on the day of my interview. Thankfully, I have Thursdays off Uni, so it looks like I have absolutely nothing stopping me! I also have to say I am so super happy that my interview is taking place in Newcastle this year - saves me so much money and only takes 40 minutes to get there by train which is ideal!

The day after I received my approved application email, I received another from Louise, who was my interviewer last year with the subject "Important Next Steps..." Now, after being through the pre-screen process once before I was a little bit confused by this as we hadn't received other emails last year.

It read:

 This was obviously something completely new, so I was a little bit nervous (although I had absolutely no reason to be, as my Disney application was already linked with Yummy and it was pretty much approved straight away:

Okay, so another thing in prepping for the interview was that we have a Yummy passport to fill out. This was something new last year, so I was already familiar with it. It looks like this, and you MUST bring it to your interview as it's what the Yummy team write your interview notes on!

I added my photograph before I printed it, but I know a lot of people are simply sticking there's straight on. (Please excuse the awful picture - I had paint speckles in my hair from moving back into my parents house!)

It's very simple - just fill out the top and circle what's applicable! Last year I wasn't very flexible, so I've made sure to change that this year as I am much more available and can partake in more roles than I would have been able to last year (as I've had a wrist tattoo that I've had laser removed since my last interview stopping me being able to do roles in QSFaB)

As expected, I am so nervous as this is my last chance to be able to do the program, and I am very wary after not making it past the pre-screen interviews last year but as always - I'm remaining positive and hoping for the best!
