  1. I really don't know what answers I could put for these questions and really need some help or advice.... =)

    This would be my first job so I really want to sound good haha.

    1. What is it about bookselling that interests you?
    2. What is it about working at Waterstones that interests you?

    Thanks

  2. These questions are very similar since Waterstones are a company that sell books and your job will be selling books.

    Try to showcase your experience in sales (if any), in a retail environment (if any) and your interest in literature. In addition, you'll want to show that you have good customer service and communication skills, together with the ability to work within a team.

    With regards to why you want to join Waterstones; do some digging online. Look on Waterstone's website and find out some history about them or maybe some interesting facts, then link your answer to these - this will be a great way of showing them that you want to work for them, and not just any other job.

    Good luck!
