I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at John Lewis & Partners (Solihull, England) in Oct 2018
Interview
They had an assessment style centre, where we had to work in a team to complete a task and also complete a written scenario based task. The questions all related to how you would handle customers and what you would do when in the role of a retail assistant when different scenarios arose.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There was no one to one interview, only group tasks and an individual written task.
It was a group interview for a temporary role over the busy winter period. We were put in groups of about 7 and did marketing and customer service activities. We were asked to come up with a marketing strategy for a winter product in our groups and present it to everyone. Next, they had people come around to our tables and discuss what customer service meant for us.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at John Lewis & Partners (Southampton, Inglaterra) in Oct 2024
Interview
It was great. The people were very friendly. You have to show your passion and motivation. Figuring out the company's background and culture is crucial. It's better to highlight your relevant experience and skills in customer service, teamwork, and sales
