I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Primark in Jun 2017
Interview
I applied online. Recived an email inviting me to interview around the next day which I was happy about because the response was quick.
I went to the store and told the customer service desk I had and interview and was taken to the HR department. I waited around 20 mins while my documents were photocopies and my interviewer came.
The interview was really straightforward and easy. It took around 10-15 mins.
At the end they told me that I passed the interview then and there which I was surprised as I thought they'd let me know at least towards the end of the day as I'm pretty sure they had other interviews to do. They then when on to check for shifts availability for me and told me that the weekend was available as a previous employee withdrew their application.
Overall it was honestly really easy thankfully.
Questions you would expect in majority retail roles. Questions about shop floor interactions. Customer interactions etc. There's only a few questions. Interview focuses the most on your soft skills and your approach to the retail environment.
