I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Marks & Spencer (Exeter, England) in Mar 2015
Interview
Very Smooth process, overall 2 weeks, online application is straight forward, and you know straight away if you get an interview is great! The interview itself was extremely laid back and easy if you do your research, the "role play" is nothing to be scared of, I just had to help find an alternative shirt to the one which was out of stock and upsale alot! M&S are a tad unreliable to contact and find out info so recommend to keep in contact with school, I phoned up and was offered my induction there and then, though on the day this did not go to plan I have to go again because f a muddle up, but staff are so lovely and seems like a great company so far!

Interview
Very chilled out interview with a few questions about simple stuff like what you would do in a confrontational event. Really nice interviewer, felt more like a chat than an interview.

Interview
The interview lasted about 40 minutes, with a lot of questions about how you have handled situations previously and why you are a good candidate for them. Overall, an average interview just come prepared with the latest news and up to date product knowledge of the company.

Very relaxed, asked about 4 questions, generic ones like tell me about yourself. Then asked more skills based ones, like a time you worked well under pressure. But overall good
