Application
I interviewed at Aesop (Sydney)
Interview
One way interview so far and attending in person interview next. I liked the format, it was comfortable and they just ask five questions and you have the option to record again. Just pay attention to the time limit as you speak.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Aesop (Bath, England) in Jul 2025
Interview
It was very long, maybe 2 months. The phone and online interviews went really well until from the last in person one. After confirming I could come to the 45 min interview they sent a final confirmation but when I showed up the manager was rude and made a comment about me not confirming (I did) and didn’t even say hello. I had the first 5 min practical interview and then just 5 more minutes talking to the manager where she asked the same questions about availability as the previous interviews. She rejected me for not meeting availability, despite being very clear about it from the start. I don’t care too much about not getting the job but they’re massive time wasters. Ironically they’ve been repeatedly posting the same ad every few weeks, I wonder why…
