The Role
The Company
I don't remember a dull day! Everyone one was always there with a smile!
The HR Team were fantastic - I couldn't fault them - They organsied meeting with us every month which involved doughnut and croissant mornings :) It really was faultless!
I gained my level 2 in Excel Training which I truely valued and greatly helped me in my day to day duties. I visited the warehouse in order to gain a deeper understand into how ASOS worked.
Flexi Time
Subsidised Canteen
Financial Bonus
Company Parties/Events
Staff Sales/Staff Shop
I would LOVE to work at ASOS and am very keen to stay in touch!
The Culture
The social scene was great, Thursdays and Fridays after work at the pub and working on Menswear there are regular social events which are always great fun and help you to get to know other members of staff that may not be on your particular team.
You could make it cheap if you wanted....but it could also be very pricey in Camden areas.
Camden was great for a night out! Different places and types of bars/clubs to go to!
Yes, there was a Netball and football team that ASOS ran and I attended a local gym regularly.
