Superdrug Store Manager interview questions

Applied on website easy enough Got contacted by Talent team to arrange interview Kerry was amazing and so helpful Went to interview in local store and met David! Interview was really good an positive! Got a phone call the same day to be informed i had got the job! Overall it was a very easy process and the 2 people i dealt with were amazing an so helpful.

Applied online and was contacted next day, did a video interview the following week (due to time restraints I had to do it on my phone using mobile network - I advise anyone to get on a strong wifi and computer as the upload times meant it took over 1 hour to complete) and I think interviewed the week after, very fast process compared to others. The recruiter was very friendly, professional and communicated relentlessly. Interviewed in store, I was asked to prepare a SWOT and answers to some questions but the interviewer was not aware of that so that was a pointless exercise. Interviewer was the area manager who I was informed by the recruiter was really friendly although I found her cold, distant and hard to talk to. Took less than 1 hour to ask a variety of competency based questions and despite having done many of these myself from both sides of the table I found it hard to figure what behaviours she was looking for so in the end I just waffled about things I have done which had little to do with Superdrug. After I was told I'd be informed within 2 weeks which then went on another week but at least they had the decency to follow up and tell me in person I had not been successful - reason given was an internal candidate was offered the position which sounded like a mug off to me and when pressed the recruiter couldn't be critical at all so I suspect I was not a good culture fit.
