Default Hein Gericke Interview!

OMG!!!!

Just took a call from the Area Manager and after dropping a CV in a few weeks ago with an unimpressed sales clerks I got a blooming interview.

Am SOOOO excited now. How cool would that be to get paid talking about bikes all day. OK, OK I don't know my HD from my HT and my K & N from my H & M but like anything I am learning all the time and can be very good at something I put my heart into.

Roll on next Thurday!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations and good luck, I would love to work in the motorcycle industry.

This is not a personal dig by any means (after your self admision that you know very little about bikes) however, I have never understood why shops like HG employ people with very little product knowledge or understanding of bike.

I appreciate it can be learnt etc by the right person pretty quickly.

The last time I went into HG in nottingham there was two gormless people in there who did not say a word to me, just kept reading (non bike related) magazines. Infact you could have sworn they had absolutely no interest in bikes (or working) whatsoever.

I then asked if they had any other XR1100s in different colours, however apparently they only come in plain colours at the moment (they only had silver and black). I then asked about the basic difference over the XR1000. Neither of them had the slightest clue.

HG seem to be the worst for doing this!

No offence taken. This is a retail store with no bikes for sale just equipment, etc. Hopefully I am a fast learner and DO have a keen interest. I would never try to pretend to be something Im not so would offer good, friendly service and practical knowledge. I would never try and cow poop my way through something as you just look like a pratt and lose any credability you have.
