I applied online. I interviewed at Smyths Toys (Dublin, Dublin) in Oct 2025
Interview
Pretty simple questions about yourself, if you’re in education. They alap asked how you’d respond to situations that could happen in store (such as unhappy customers). Interview was quite low-key and relaxed, didn’t feel pressured.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you react to an aggressive customer at your till?
Short phone interview followed by a group stage. At the group stage we played an icebreaker bingo, did a short maths test, and built lego in teams. If you pass this stage you go onto a face to face interview stage.
Standard process of filling out some questions online followed by an in person interview in the store with the manager. Overall a good process but some of the questions asked seem to be looking for a very specific answer
