I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Primark (Reading, England) in Dec 2018
Interview
I applied online, then completed a numerical test (Not your standard SHL - it was more data finding), then had a video interview before being invited into the head office for a 1:1 interview.
The video interview had three questions with a short time to prepare between them.
The 1:1 interview was in 2 parts. Part 1 I presented qualities that make a good Merchandiser and how merchandising fits into the fashion buying cycle. Part two was competency based interview questions.

Question 1
What do you expect to be doing day to day within the role?
I had a lovely interview, both interviewers were friendly and gave me positive feedback at the end of my interview. They also gave me time to think and answer questions.
overall great process with friendly people. It was divided into a group exercise, solo interview with a presentation and competency based questions, as well as an online maths test. Overall very enjoyable process and a great company to work for
