NEXT Merchandising Trainee interview questions

Online application with general questions about competitors and Next. Then an online aptitude tests to test numeracy skills. After this was a video interview with 3 questions and a total of 4 minutes to answer them, but you can watch and re-record your answers. After this was a telephone interview which they told you to prepare for by making store observations and thinking about competitors for all aspects of the business, and some more maths-based questions. Then an assessment centre, which takes about 3 hours in total at the Leicester head office. It included a one-to-one interview - which was just talking about Next for most of it and my CV or skills weren't really even discussed - for about an hour then a group task with other candidates. the task was to choose 16 items of 20 that would be best sellers and give reasons why in front of a panel.
