Applied online and got invited to an interview the next week. Was a group interview with three other people, being interviewed by three Tesco staff members. First asked to introduce ourselves to the room, then all asked the same question then an individual question.
Then we wee given a group task and monitored, the task was to construct a tower made out of paper that was at least three feet high, free standing and had a custom flag attached.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Tesco (Dublin, Dublin) in Apr 2015
Interview
I was called on a Tuesday and had the interview on a Wednesday. The interview was pretty standard, basic competency questions and really relaxed. I was quite annoyed because they didn't call me after the interview at all to let me know if I'd gotten it (obviously I didn't.) It still would've been the professional thing to do, especially since there was only a couple people called for the interview. I was interviewed by two different managers and they were both nice. They were able to have a laugh with me which helped me feel more relaxed.
