Cafe Nero advertising non existent vacancies

[Jules-and-Boo]

My daughter just went in to see about the vacancies they have in their window.

She was told they don't have vacancies and they are not hiring but they just put the sign up anyway, "because it's just a sign"

Nice.

I think a national news paper may be interested?

Email it to the various news desks

They have jobs on their website but none in ED

I'd be tempted to take a photo and put it on their facebook page :)

Yes, this looks specious - we have jobs to offer you at Caffe Nero (the company) but not this Caffe Nero (the branch). Tacky and unpleasant for those people who are seeking work in difficult circumstances.

Very annoying for your daughter to have her time wasted like that. I hope she finds a better job that she enjoys, very soon!

Anyway, the story remind me of this:

Thank you for you kind support. It is indeed unpleasant and not necessary.

Why would a national newspaper care about this? There's plenty of far more important things going on in the world right now.

No doubt pocket money budgets are far higher in East Dulwich than 95% of the country anyway, so i wouldnt go pestering the editor of The Guardian just yet.

Go and troll somewhere else 🙄

ETA: Just to point out that my post above must have referred to a trolling post which has now been removed, and does not refer to any of the posts remaining on the thread :))

My nephew went into a well known coffee shop and asked about a job they were advertising at the job centre when he went for the interview they said they cant employ him as he is a British national and only employing foreign nationals ... these coffee shops are a joke and bloody expensive.. hope your daughter finds a job.. I believe B & M IN OLD KENT ROAD MAYBE HIRING

My daughter just left there 2 weeks ago to start a new job In a doctors surgery tell your daughter to pop in and try there ..

If this is true TF which I very much doubt this would contravene the race discrimination laws. Suggest your nephew reports to the authorities, if his claim is upheld he would be entitled to compensation.

@nxjen It was about 4 years ago this happend

So too late now .. but yes it is true .

[nxjen]

We?re going to be hearing even more rubbish like this now, what?s that saying about history being written by the victors?

Thanks Ted

Maybe it was at a time of initiatives like the below - I've noticed manager level employees sometimes can't explain company policies very well and resort to simplistic explanations. You have to turn down an applicant so you come up with a populist reason from something you read about company policy.

Isn't there a local coffee shop that gives preference to the homeless.
