I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at River Island in Sep 2013
Interview
The interview process was casual and relaxed with questions such as what do you know about the company, what can you bring to river island, a time when u have delivered customer service. All the usual questions. It's normally a group interview so it's a lot more relaxed. You may be asked to create an outfit on the shop floor then have to explain it.

Interview
My interview was done online with an ai bot who asks you questions. I answered them but I don’t think the questions are the same for everyone. But I did my best and in my opinion interviews online is better than face to face.
