I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Tesco (Brighton, England) in Jan 2013
Interview
Applied online & received a phone call a few weeks later asking me to come in. I did a group interview (3 of us) where we were individually asked questions. That lasted around 20 minutes. We were then taken to the shop floor and asked to tidy a portion of a shelf & rotate the dates etc. That was that, and all three of us got the job.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe an example of you giving good customer service in the past.
Interview was around 2.5 hours in total. Started with a group interview then 20 minutes on the shop floor shadowing a checkout colleague then finally a 1 to 1 interview with a manager.
Nice environment. Kind people. Asked the right questions and I felt I could ask any questions i had. Overall I enjoyed the experience and would recommend to other people to do an interview with them.
Very easy, just asked a few questions about my experience and my availability on time etc. what days i can work and my flexability on the dates i can do
