There will be a training in my area next week. I would like to sign up however most of the time I am at work. If I sign up but I e-mail them ahead of time and let them know that I can't make it, will it effect me for applying for future jobs with them?
If you really want to shop for Chipotle, if you can take the morning off from work, I would (if I were you). I don't think that training sessions are done in the same areas on a regular basis. It could be a long time until another one comes along. Months, maybe longer. Or you may have to travel quite a way to take one at a future date.
You can't work for them until you do the training, so you can't apply for any "future jobs," just future training. The MSC is great to work for, but I'm guessing they may not invite you for training again if you renege on this one. Or, if you apply for another training session in the future and it's close to full, you may be given low priority for it. I don't know that for sure, but it's my guess.
I started shopping for them because someone cancelled out on a training session, and they called me to see if I could fill the slot. So, if you commit and don't go, they'll try to fill that slot--and may end up with enough shoppers that they won't schedule a training in your area again. I'm not sure, but think they've had just one training in my area since then. Or there may have been none.
