I applied online. I interviewed at John Lewis & Partners
Interview
After completing the online assessment where I had to answer scenario based questions I was invited to a group interview at the store. At first we were working individually and had to write down what we would do in different scenarios in a booklet. We also had to indicate our availability and desired hours. After this we worked in a group. We were given more scenarios and had to discuss how best to approach them. An assessor was listening to our discussions and we had to feedback our answers to them at the end. The interview felt fairly relaxed.
A week later I received an email telling me that I was a successful candidate but couldn't be job matched so was added to their candidate pool.
