Interview
It got off to an unorganised start, they thought I was another interviewee and then they lost the paperwork they needed to conduct the interview. When it finally took place, I had two managers doing it. One asked the questions and wrote my answers and the other one was the head of the department of counters (meat/ cheese/ fish eyc)- even though I applied for stock control. After 5 or 6 questions they put me on the floor behind the cheese and meat counter for 20 minutes where I got to see how everything worked and asked the employees lots of questions. The manager came and got me and took me back into the office and offered me the job there and then. I gladly accepted, even though it wasn't the job I originally applied for, but I wasn't going to point that out now! The managers and everyone I interacted with were lovely and I'm looking forward to starting.

The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tesco (Londen, Engeland) in Apr 2016
Interview
I applied online and then got a call about a week later asking me to come in for an interview. It was a group interview with 4 other people. We were all asked around 4/5 questions and went round the group to answer them. We then got asked to do a team building exercise of building a tower out of paper. After that we went out on the shop floor interacting with some customers and working with some of the people there for about 20 minutes. This was so that they could see how well we would work in the process. The interview was very relaxed and calm and the lady interviewing was very nice!
