    WMT recruiting

    I don’t know much really, they send you a few forms to fill in, bank accounts etc for wages to go into. You fill the forms in at home then take them up to HQ.

    WMT recruiting

    It’s a slow process. In all fairness they get a huge number of applicants. I’ve got my background checks and uniform sizing today, it’s taken 14months from the day I applied. In my opinion, it also takes a longtime so that some people drop out/de-select themselves. The numbers they receive...

    My dmi was around 45minutes. I was very relaxed about it, after all, it’s just a chat with two people about your experiences within your past/current work. The people who interviewed me were very friendly and I felt at ease. Just relax and stay calm

    Starting salary

    I’m not sure buddy, I think and I’m guessing. Once you have completed al training and assisted driving hours you would be on 41.5k, then I think you have to do a time period to get the top whack. Probably 1-2years at a total guess
