Jobs at Sainsburys

I am easily confused as is the average job seeker these days, but is online recruitment at Sainsbury's going from the ugly to the very ugly?

Don't take this the wrong way Sainsbury's; I think you have great food but your employer brand is not that fantastic so why make such a mess of online?  And you can only blame your predecessors for so long!

So, we recently had the Sainsbury's bunch campaign which reminded me of the Spitting Images (no doubt soon to be repeated in Headcases) where the waiter asked Maggie 'What about the vegetables (i.e. do you want some) and she replied 'Yes, they'll have the same (referring to the cabinet as veg!).  So does this imply that their Store Managers are a bunch of bananas or plain old monkeys?  I think not!

Then, we have the beautiful search process courtesy of Changeworknow.    Maybe the headline is talking about it taking about half an hour to find a job search link!!

And then, we have the best yet.  Oracle iRecruitment; maybe the ugliest front end of a career site developed so far this millennium?  But if you know of anything any uglier do please let me know.

I'm sure Sainsbury's will tell me that I am wrong, some of these sites are not live and I should update my post.  Well, I'm no technical wizard and found them all on the web.  Check the links below and at the same time checkout the rest of the ugly gang!!
