John Lewis & Partners interview questions

I started out by applying online which required me to complete two separate tests. After the tests, I got an email inviting me to schedule my time slot for a group assessment. The group assessment lasted just over an hour and consisted of two parts: a group exercise and an individual exercise. For the group exercise, we were split into 3 groups of 5 and given a scenario of a number of tasks that needed to be completed. We had 5 minutes of individual preparation time and then 20 minutes to discuss as a group what priority we gave to each task. About 10 minutes in, the interviewer handed as a sheet of paper that has an additional task that we had to work into the list. After this, we had an individual exercise in which we were given a sheet of paper with 3 questions on it. We were given 20 minutes to answer how we would tackle each of the 3 problems.

Apply online with personal details as well as situational judgement test with scenarios from working in the store. Then a group assessment centre, with around 30 other candidates lasting around 3 hours.
