I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at NEXT (Chester, Inglaterra) in Nov 2015
Interview
Applied online. Had to do an online assessment. Then was called in for an interview. Wasn't really an interview, was a room of about 6 people, and we were all told we'd got a job. Had to bring paperwork etc and was shown the safety videos and a tour of the store.
They will show you the store and give you tasks on how to help customers, displaying competencies in customer service, this depends on deparments because if you work in another department, they will make you tag or fold clothes.
Applied online, did an online assessment, then a video interview. After that they made me come into the store and put an outfit together (for a wedding guest I believe) in 30 minutes. You pick out the outfit, jewellery, makeup, shoes, other accessories etc.
Easy interview on the phone then in store trial where i had to help customers and tidy the shop floor. The process was quick and easy and I was offered the job on the spot
