I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Currys (Liverpool, England) in Aug 2016
Interview
Applied online, then was called back to ask if I was still interested, afterwards, had a 30 minute interview in store 1 on 1 with the manager, nice guy, asked about CV, hobbies, and there were some sample questions asking about how to prove teamwork skills/etc. Do you have the killer instinct to close sales etc. Quite a simple interview, didn't have to prepare anything at all.

Question 1
How do you handle working in stressful busy times?
Definitely the easiest interview I had ever done. It was just an informal chat with one of the managers with really simple and straightforward questions and asking about my availability.
Initial group interview and then one to one afterwards. Very relaxed setting and was made comfortable by staff undertaking interview. The whole process was very quick and communication was great.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Currys
Interview
Fairly easy, staff were friendly and a smooth process. The employers do not make you feel pressurised, it helps when you have previous sales experience but if you show them you are eager to learn and are engaged in tech. they'll definitely want you.
