Interview
I applied October 2015 and it was for a temporary christmas role on Oxford Street. I applied online after going through several online tests and was invited to a group assessment. When I arrived there were around 25 of us and they told us that we were the 2/3 of the day. We were then put into groups of 4 and and had to solve a scenario as a group. We then had a written assessment. They replied within a week.
