Urgent help needed please with job app form! Your responses to these 6 multiple choice Q's please

[*oh*no*i*just*wet*my*espadrilles*]

Hi

I'm applying for a sales assistant job that I really want (perfect hours, and local to my home) but I need some help and the form has to be handed in tomorrow!  Upon reading over the 32 mulitple choice questions to complete, there are six that could be viewed one or two ways (or maybe I'm thinking too deeply!)

If you can imagine that you are already an experienced retail sales assistant, can you let me know what answers you would put in my place?

Score responses using these values:

0 = none

1 = little

2= moderate

3 = considerable

CUSTOMER SERVICE

'Dealing with awkward customers'

Your experience - rate 0-3 as above

Your enjoyment - rate 0-3 as above

I immediately thought I should answer 3 for my experience and 3 for my enjoyment, because I wanted the employer to see that I can deal with problems, BUT thinking about it, do they, or should I really consider any customers as 'awkward'?  HELP!!

WORK ETHIC

'Persevering with routine tasks'

Your experience - rate 0-3 as above

Your enjoyment - rate 0-3 as above

Exactly the same as above, but should I think outside the box, and consider that I shouldn't have to be 'persevering' with routine tasks, as they should be simple to perform?  (the job consists of just serving customers and putting stock out) If I score '2's' I could also be telling the employers that I don't like routine!

COMPLIANCE

'Being closely supervised'

Your experience - rate 0-3 as above

Your enjoyment - rate 0-3 as above

I thought '1' for 'experience'  as I've never needed to be closely supervised in any job, but should I ever be closely supervised in this job, and would a '2' be ok for 'enjoyment', as I don't want to sound like I'm lacking in confidence and need the supervision.....

Thanks in advance folks!

If this is a supermarket job, there aren't really any right or wrong answers, go with your gut instincts and try not to think too much also don't try to put what you think they want to hear,  most of these forms are done with a template, and you are allowed a percentage of wrong answers.  Years ago when you filled in forms on paper and not on the computer, they litterally had a template that went over your answers with holes in it if your answers corresponded with the holes you got an interview if not then filed under bin.  Sadly gone are the days when everyone used to get an interview and you knew you could pull it off face to face, now you have to jump through hoops just to get an interview.

Much luck
