I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Primark (Reading, Inglaterra) in Oct 2016
Interview
Really easy process. Did an online application form which took about 20 minutes. A couple of days later I got a call asking to go in for a face to face interview. Went in, answered a few questions tailored to someone who had no retail experience and received a call from them 5 days later and got the job.
