I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Primark (Stockport, England) in Nov 2015
Interview
Interview didn't last long at all, they just want to know what kind of person you are, what hours you're willing to work and ensure you know what the salaries and uniforms are like, interview literally lasted for 10 minutes. Got taken into the canteen to wait and was seen fairly quickly. They photocopy your passport and your national insurance number and then ask you a couple of questions and then walk you back into the store, it was easy.
