I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at John Lewis & Partners (Glasgow, Scotland) in Sep 2019
Interview
Submitted CV and cover letter online and was then emailed a week later to attend a group interview of 12 people, heard back 2 weeks later to say I had been successful.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There were no questions, it was a group exercise instead.
Group presentation, followed by a one on one interview with management which was good, and informative, but seemingly not very well planned. I did get the job though, so I must have done something right.
Sat us down in a room. Got into groups. Had to go through situations together and decide what we would do. Then we presented our ideas to our supervisor at our table. It was very relaxed and informal. Then we got given a sheet with similar situations but we had to judge what we would do individually. Then got given a sheet to fill out with our hours.
