Working at coles

Does anyone work at coles? I just applied and curious as to what the pay rate is? And also how flexible they are as I prefer only school hours. Thankyou

It will depend on the store and what gaps they need to fill. Each department usually manages there own roster, and most managers won’t waist time putting someone down for a shift, they aren’t available for. Just like they won’t bother rostering a teenager for school hours.
But if you are casual you aren’t guaranteed a number of hours and you just have to wait and see how it plays out.

I worked for coles a long time ago doing night fill, when my ex was working during the day, but sorry I don’t recall the pay rate.

I also applied a year or so again with school hours being my preferred now that I’m single, but they said I wasn’t available enough as I couldn’t do weekends or late night.

I ended up moving into community based aged care instead because they need workers and are SUPER flexible with school hours as that’s also my preferred option. Got a permanent part time position now :)

If coles doesn’t work out for you, maybe look into this as some companies will take you even with no experience.

I would like to do that but unfortunately I can’t afford the course and I am not vaccinated.

I don't think you need to do the course to start with (I may be wrong?) and as for vaccination, well you obviously don't need a job that bad.
