Next, explain what type of employers you have worked for; trackside betting shop, high street betting shop and/or small estate betting shop. Then go on to describe a list of your duties; taking bets, handling cash, dealing with, sometimes, angry customers.
End the interview answer by describing why you enjoy working, nit just in a customer facing role, but in a betting shop specifically.
Betting Shop Cashier Job Interview Question 2 How would you explain odds and betting options to new customers?
Explain how this situation is common – as this shows experience.
Here you probably have an explanation that you frequently use, if so, use the same explanation in the job interview. If not use something along the lines of ‘When you look at the odds, the odd represents the ratio between what you bet (your stake) and the amount you could possible win (the Odds) As an example if the odds are 3 to 1, for everyone £1 you bet, you could possibly win £3 – as this is a 3 to 1 odds.
Also make it clear how you tell new customers that there are different types of bets and how all bets are risky.
Betting Shop Cashier Job Interview Question 3 Do you have experience of using a computerized system for recording bets and taking payments?
Each betting shop may use a different computerised system, and once employed the successful applicant will be trained on all systems.

It is important here to explain in detail the steps you took, using excellent customer service, to support the customer to find a solution to their problem.
Betting Shop Cashier Job Interview Question 5 Give an example of dealing with an angry customer?
When asked specifically about ‘angry’ customers, this means the betting shop where the cashier job has been advertised for deals with ‘angry’ customers on a regular basis.
It is important to highlight your experience of working with ‘angry’ customers: ‘In my last role, working at Big Bens Betting shop we would dealt with customers who regular placed large bets. When unsuccessful, many customers, after losing thousands of pound’s would be angry…’
Once the situation has been explained, you need to explain how you overcome this issue: ‘…When the customer became angry I would….(add in explanation; as an example this could be diffusing the situation getting a different member of staff who didn’t take the bet to answer the queries, this helped to diffuse the situation as the customer wanted to take their anger out on the person who they placed the bet with.’

When answering this question talk about the steps you take regarding cash taking.
Initial I will check the till float amount is accurate at the start of my shift
When taking bets I check, and double, the betting slips and payments.
For large bets I inform a supervisor who will double check the amount and agree/disagree to the bet.
I never leave the till open and ensure that no other staff member uses my till.
At the end of the day I run the till receipt and check the takings before passing the cash to the betting shop manager for double checking
Betting Shop Cashier Job Interview Question 8 Give an example of working within a team?
When asked for an ‘example’ the employer is looking for a story that will highlight the skill, in this case ‘teamwork’. Ideally, the example should be based in the workplace – but doesn’t have to be.
For ‘example’ answers you can use the 4 steps below:
Set out the team task you had to perform
Explain what your part within the team was and any actions you took
Discuss how you helped other team members
State the outcome; that you achieved the task.

In all customer service and retail job roles communication is a vital skills.
In the betting shop industry, and when working as a betting shop cashier communication is of high importance.
