I think it's just an honesty test. You know, have you ever shoplifted? Would notify management if you saw a co-worker doing something against the code of conduct? Probably some general safety questions...and then you sign your life away 
Nothing too serious I don't think Good Luck! keep us posted. |

I'm curious to know why you're so eager to work for Rona. I just watched a story on CBC News about the labour shortage in Alberta. There are companies offering bonuses to staff who stay on longer than 3 months. Seems to me that you Albertans have your options wide open.
That aside, I think your key to get in to Rona is to be the Sqeaky Wheel. Figure out which area of the store you'd like to work in and find out who the Zone Manager for that department is. Then seek them out personally and discuss working there... then do it again, and again. Zone Managers do most of their own hiring, I don't think Store Managers have much to do with the process. |
