I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at River Island in Jan 2014
Interview
Informal and pretty quick. The manager seemed like they would rather close up shop than do an interview. They asked a few basic questions, and then closed with a review on my attempt to sell an outfit.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Pick an outfit from the store and explain why you picked it.
Online application, was offered an interview. Was told to read up on the history of River Island and nice, casual clothing was fine.
Had an interview with about 8 others, it was a group interview. We started with an ice breaker question (what's our favourite meal). We then had to go out onto the shopfloor and pick out an outfit ( make sure your outfit is complete with shoes/accessories) and then describe why we chose that outfit. We then did a little role play pretending to be a customer and then an employee. And then the group was asked about whether anyone had looked into the history of RI. Lastly, they asked if we had any questions and that they would call in a few days if you going to be offered the position.
I applied online. I interviewed at River Island (Swansea, Gales) in Apr 2018
Interview
Interview process was and moderately fast. They replied fast after I replied online and it took a few days to get back to me after my interview. I am very excited to start working for River Island and face upcoming challenges.
