Interview
I had to prepare answers prior to the interview on questions they sent me. They then asked me these questions in the interview. I also had to do team-working tasks. It was not very professional because I initially got rejected, and a month later they needed more staff and offered me a job.

Interview
really fun and engaging. Even though anxiety was an issue for me the group activity wasn't as daunting as I thought it would be. everyone engages with you and staff conducting interviews were also engaging and professional at the same time. So by the time the 1 to 1 comes youre relaxed enough to be able to comfortably get through it.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Merlin Entertainments (London, England) in Aug 2015
Interview
Assessment centre of around 40 people. You had to bring an item which best describes yourself and explain why, followed by upselling tasks and chatting with everyone. Very awkward and unfair as it is often difficult to shine among this amount of people. Simple one on one interviews would make more sense for the type of role.
