That's up to you. Is Home Bargains on your CV and the job for which you failed your probation?

[Moorea7]

Why?  You did work there!

[abbeylee90]

I mean to say I don't work there no more and no home bargains isn't warehouse is 

[Moorea7]

If your CV doesn't include all your previous jobs, I guess you would have to account for the gaps between dates.  Would you just say you were unemployed?

[abbeylee90]

Not home bargains as I worked in care home at same time

[Moorea7]

O.K.  Just leave both jobs on your CV - it lets  prospective employers see what you have done - for however short a period.

[Neveracrossword]

Abbey, isn't the care home job the only one you've had that's lasted more than weeks? 

[abbeylee90]

No mcdonalds  and an admin job 

[douglas9401]

Oooh, a police procedural in the making.

[abbeylee90]

Does it look bad if I ring this agency and ask what name of the company of that warehouse job they called me about and I haven't heard back from the other job about an interview 

[newmodarmy]

Just ask the agency so you'll get a better idea of where you stand and can decide what next to ask us- preferably something less hypothetical

[abbeylee90]

They've put me in for an interview next Thursday 

[Hazlinny]

Abbey, you speak about "an Agency" - have you been in person to the Agency prior to them offering you an interview at places of work?  

[abbeylee90]

I'm signed up with loads of agencies

[Hazlinny]

..... but have you been interviewed by the actual Agencies rather than just submitting your name and CV?

[abbeylee90]

Some yes some no

[abbeylee90]

I've left a message with the agency 

[Neveracrossword]

Abbey, thanks for your reply at 10.19 yesterday. When I asked the question, I was thinking of your 2023 working experience, experiences... that was pretty varied!

[abbeylee90]

Sorry what was it?

[newmodarmy]

It was just this exchange from above, abbey
