    I assume you'd be asked about people management, merchandising, what you can offer, how you'd improve things.

    Never been in that situation but thats what i'd want to be asking you about. If i was interviewing for that kind of role

    people skills, team management, merchandising displays, cashing tills etc, how you would keep your minions organised and the like...

    Make sure you put across the fact that you would be very active to improve team skills / communication as this will lead to a more efficient running of day-to-day tasks

    Im sure you will be more than capable of getting through it. Without offending anyone you dont have to be britains best brains to be a supervisor rather than a sales assistant, but im sure the extra money is encouragement alone.

    If you've been working in the same store/department for 2yrs then you'll most likely walk into the job if theres not much competition.

    As said before putting across that you want to motivate the team showing your a hard worker and don't let slackers get off slacking, communication is key at a supervisor level as theres a few in my store who are as helpful as a door.

    The extra pay is only £1 an hour as well, just out of curiosity what store/department you in, Im in the isle of wight store myself.

    im a supervisor for the pizza place i work in, although its not really any different from being a regular worker, i just have to tell people what to do.
    you could emphasise the point that you're good at motivating people and have good communication skills?

    @BlueRiband.
    Off topic - but i noticed a post by you regarding clothing2u.com ages ago!
    Did you order jeans from them? Because I did recently (well, 2 weeks ago), and theres no sign of the jeans, no replies, £40 gone. Buggers!
