I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at NEXT (Londres, Inglaterra) in Nov 2016
Interview
Applied online. Then the next day, I received an email telling me I was shortlisted for a phone interview. Then received a call the day after getting the email for a phone interview. Was just asked a few questions and then asked me what day I was available for an assessment in store. Received an email a few minutes after the phone interview with information for the assessment, including what to bring.
During the assessment, in which one other person was there, we were told there was one position for the permanent stockroom assistant but the other would be offered a seasonal temp position and could be offered a permanent after Christmas if any opened up. We asked a few questions (availability, experience) before taken for a tour around the stockroom. We were then split up and given a few tasks to do for around half an hour. Then we were brought together to be told their decision. I was offered the seasonal temp position rather than the one I applied for, in which I declined. It was a smooth, causal process and they were very friendly. Also given £10 as well as a £10 Next gift card for my time. The whole process of the assessment took around an hour and a half.
Floor walk exercise for 25mins easy and next processed my rights to work checks after that. Was hired the week after and scheduled for training as well as my shift times
I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at NEXT (Trafford Park, England) in Aug 2024
Interview
Folded clothes and put on hangers, more a test of composure and basic motor ability. Job accepted, fair pace to it but get the hang of it or near enough target after a while
Interviewed for stock room assistant. Straightforward interview with store assistant manager, met the stock room manager afterwards. Was offered the job the same day. Don't think I had to give references but was one of my first jobs years ago.
