I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Tesco in May 2017
Interview
Applied online and was called a day later to arrange an interview.
Easy questions given by one interviewer who seemed disinterested. It was a very casual interview with basic questions that gave an opportunity to show how you were suited to the job.
No call/email following the interview even though I was told I'd be given word within a week.

straight forward, in person interview. invited to a discovery day, a few weeks to hear any call back or feedback but in the end they will end up a hiring internally unfortunately.
