I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at River Island (Londres, Inglaterra) in May 2017
Interview
I applied on online and 20 mins later invited to a group interview. Basically got invited to a recruitment event on the Monday . There was 6 of us, and we each had to get up and say who our style crush was...i said mine was Gigi Hadid, We then had to get into a circle and give one thing we could bring to River Island...here I talked about fashion awareness and my knowledge of current trends. We then had to get into pairs and demonstrate (role-play)what is good customer service and what is bad customer service. After this we had a 1-1 where we had to state our availability. I then got called on the Friday and was offered the Job I will be attending the induction on Sunday.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at River Island (Prestatyn, Wales) in Jun 2016
Interview
I was invited to a group interview alongside 5 other females aged between 17-25.
We were asked to say our name, a little bit about ourselves and an interesting fact as an 'ice breaker'.
We then had to write down on a piece of paper the reasons why we wanted to work for River Island, this seemed a good thing to do yet we were only allowed to say 2 points from the paper out loud which seemed ridiculous!
Our next task was to partner up and try and 'sell' a specific piece of clothing, this seemed stupid as in a real life scenario a customer will ask for something specific, you wouldn't need to force them into buying a product!
The interview was too relaxed, unprofessional and conducted by two 18 year olds!!
We werent given a 1 on 1 in which you could present and speak about your actual relevant skills. Consider it an easy interview yet pointless as too many girls were shouting their opinions and thoughts so you couldn't get a word in edgeways. Also one of the candidates used unprofessional language, talked illly of their current company and swore frequently which I wouldn't find a
characteristic that should be used during an interview process
