Expect to work ridiculously hard but get the rewards for it. You should aim to be putting in 70 hours per week but after 4/5 years you will have a house and savings to show for it.

Hi Conor,

That is exactly what I am after! I just want to get my teeth into something, dedicate myself to it and get the rewards.

Did you do the scheme?

Thnx

I was with the ridiculously similar LIDL. If you're willing to relocate and bury yourself in work for a few years the rewards are huge. Also get used to 5am starts!
I would definitely apply for it if it sounds right for you.
There will be strong competition for a place, what they are looking for is someone who went out of their way to make sales, if you had your own/family business it will help in the interview but not essential. Ask them what freedom you have to increase turnover - turnover is a big thing in the company at the minute.

What else do you want to know?
