Pretty easy, just asked about experience and strengths. Then did a group exercise where we had to prioritise tasks. Then we had to talk about why we chose certain things and what impact it had on sales
I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Waitrose (Nailsea, England) in Sept 2015
Interview
I wanted to find full time employment so I sent a letter and my CV to all the local charities and the RSPCA came back to me saying they had a vacancy for a paid shop assistant and the following week I had an interview at the shop with the manager and area supervisor. After another week I was called to the shop for a second interview which was a practical interview on how I organised the shop and pricing stock and after another week I heard the results of the interview which ended up with a job share between me and another young girl.
The recruitment process comprised of one online task, one round of in-person group tasks (based on real life scenarios) and then a one to one interview. The online task, in-person group tasks and one to one questions were straightforward.
Short initial interview with typical questions asked during any other behavioural interview. Might have been an initial online screening asking about how you are in the workplace and your personality.
Hiring manager was very friendly and patient.
