I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Waitrose (Northampton, England) in Jun 2016
Interview
The interview was a standard 1-on-1 interview asking the most basic example questions possible. The hiring manager was nice and disregarded nervousness as it was a first job.

Question 1
Describe a time you've dealt with a difficult situation involving people.
They asked some basic questions; it was a very friendly atmosphere; the recruitment process is very straightforward; I think it takes no more than two weeks. First a telephone interview, then an interview with the managers
it was a normal customer service interview with competency and situational questions and questions about yourself and all that kind of stuff. very basic part-time job interview that anyone could get through
Completed an online assessment that was harder than it seemed and then did an in person interview with one of the managers. She was very friendly and I felt at ease.
