Recruitment email real?

Firstly I know this is the iPhone section, but there isn't a community tailored to generic questions.


In September I applied for a position at my local store in Melbourne Australia but I heard nothing back.

About 3 hours ago I received an email from Fiona (Applejobs@email.apple.com) with the following;

Subject:

Hello from Apple Recruiting - Fountain Gate

Hello Joseph,


I hope this email finds you well. My name is Fiona and I am a Recruiter with Apple Retail.


Thank you for expressing an interest in career opportunities with Apple. I wanted to reach out to you to introduce myself and ask a few questions to learn a bit more about you and see if we can match what you're looking for.



1. Availability


Were you seeking a Part Time or Full Time position with us, and what days would you be available to work? Please note, our Part Time requirements are at least four full days of availability, including full availability over the weekend. Our Full Time requirements are seven full days of availability.

2. Rights to Work

Are you on a visa? If so, please outline which visa you hold, any restrictions it imposes, and the expiry date of your visa.

3. Time Off Requests

What plans do you have for extended time off (three consecutive days or more) over the next six months?

4. Preferred Location

What are your preferred store locations?

5. Have you previously worked for Apple Retail, or have you ever attended an interview with Apple Retail? If so, please provide details.


6. We are holding invitation-only group interviews tomorrow, Wednesday 3rd December in the evening and still have a few seats left. If you meet the requirements we are looking for would you have any availability then?



If you could please send through your responses as soon as possible, we will be in touch if you're a potential match for one of our positions.


I look forward to hearing from you!

The email is exactly the same as the email address I received when I sent off my application.


So I am not sure, it's very specific as I only applied for Fountain Gate being my closest store. 😕
