I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Co-op (Lindfield, England) in July 2023
Interview
A casual 20 minute interview in the breakroom at the back of the store. Usual interview questions such as describing times I've demonstrated teamwork. The interviewer was someone with a similar role to what I was applying for so quite informal.
