what's your proudest achievement?

being part of a real team setting up the lower ground floor of Oxford Circus in 1986 when it was little more than a building site.

Mike's story

i am the stockroom assistant in hmv Oxford Circus. Back in 1974, I managed a record store in Dublin. I wanted to broaden my musical and other horizons. I flew to London for an interview and have been here ever since.

during my time with hmv, I have worked in many areas, Classicial, Specialities, Jazz - in various positions over the years. This has been a great learning curve for me, which I have thoroughly enjoyed.

what I enjoy most about working with hmv is the sense of teamwork. The knowledge and passion everyone has are vital. I am constantly gaining through shared experiences. We have a real knowledge pool in the team, there is a database everyone can share which leads to the satisfaction of providing real service to our customers.
