I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Primark (Wolverhampton, Inglaterra) in Aug 2016
Interview
Applied online on the Monday and received a phone call offering me an interview by the Friday. Interview was scheduled for the following Tuesday but had to rearrange for the next day due to family matters, Primark were very understanding and interviewed me on the Wednesday despite saying they were just interviewing Monday & Tuesday. Went to customer services and was taken downstairs where I was asked to wait in the canteen until the manager was ready to see me. We went through into his office where the interview took place (lasted about 20 minutes). Was told that I'd hear back by Monday latest and if I was successful I'd have to attend an induction day on the weekend and then start work the weekend after.
