How much experience in adding to basket sales did I have
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at PoundStretcher (London, England)
Interview
Brief and informal .I was a expecting a more formal interview considering the fact that they were willing to put me in charge of a store within a few weeks. I expected them to drill into my past experiences and decide on if I had previously encountered any of the tasks and responsibilities expected of me. Instead it was just a chat with a box ticking exercise.
