Answer 1

Keep putting in applications to the same places all the time as the forms are thrown out every couple of months so when they do need someone the top ones are picked.If they do see a couple of applications with the same name at least they know you're keen
GOOD LUCK!

Hi Laura,
At sportsgirl they do not accept resumes in store. Only through their website. They really like retail and customer service experience. If you are friendly and a team player i am sure they will give you a chance. Make sure to drop off resumes to stores you like and also check out their homepage for tips etc..
It's always good to know a few things about the company and its range of clothing etc.. at the time of your interview etc.. very helpful
Well i hope that hepls a little..

Answer 3

I'd guess each branch would be different, as all the above are franchises, where each shop would be run by a different person/people. Its probaly more a case of trial & error. Or asking friends if they know anyone who has worked at that particular shop. Another tip is to go into the shop and see if the staff appear to be happy or miserable.

Good luck
