I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Argos (Poole, Inglaterra) in Oct 2014
Interview
It started with a brief phone interview which was just about getting to know you and some basic interview questions. I was then invited to a group interview where we were put into teams and given different scenarios such as, Family relatives are coming to stay for christmas but you didn't have enough cutlery, bedding, ect whats the best deal you could do to suit their needs. Then we were asked what the perfect sales assistant would be. After the group interview which was completely informal. I was then selected for a face to face interview in which they asked more questions about customer service, past experience ect.
