I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Argos (Glasgow, Scotland) in Sep 2016
Interview
Group interview in the staff room. All handed in our right to work documents and were then asked to speak to the person next to us and introduce them to the group. After, we did another group task that involved deciding which celebrities would best fit the role of working in each of Argos' departments (e.g. tills, picking, fast track) and then we reported back our suggestions to the room. That was it.
