Interview
After a long written application process online I was emailed weeks later to book an Individual Assessment from a selection of dates and times. The interview was with 2 people and it involved a written timed maths test and a verbal test involving a few store scenarios. I was asked about any difficulties regarding availability to work certain days or hours, and several general typical interview questions about the store, my motivations and my work history.

Question 1
What do you know about the company? Why did you choose us? How are we different to other supermarkets? Where do you see yourself in 5 years time?

Interview
Interview was conducted by an intern at the time. Interview was relatively relaxed and conducted in a casual environment (back of the store). Follow-up interview was with the regional manager.

Interview
I applied online and received an email to schedule the interview within 2-3 weeks. Interview was short and mainly about myself and my work history. They tested a couple of scenarios followed by a quick and simple maths test which was timed. Received an email within a few hours to book store experience. Store experience lasted just under 2 hours. There was another applicant and the store deputy manager. We started of with a sheet of paper ticking our availability, a few maths questions and describing ourselves with 3 words. Then we went on to quick introductions, heard about the company and had to do some basic health and safety. We were showed around the warehouse and shop floor where everything was explained. Then we split up with another deputy manager and did a quick task tidying up some shelves. It was very easy going and the people were very friendly and welcoming. I wasn't sure what to wear for the store experience so opted for smart casual which was fully appropriate as it wasn't an interview but more of an induction
