      Sales Assistant Interview

      Dec 15, 2014
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Marks & Spencer in Sep 2014

      Interview

      Applied online using the M&S careers website, the whole process was pretty straight forward. You have to complete an online form and test which evaluates how you would respond in different situations on the shop floor. After I completed the online test, I was given the option to select an interview date for the next week. The actual interview was pretty basic, you are given a role play to carry out. Before the role play you are given a sheet with pictures and information of their stock as well as details about surrounding stores and promotions. Your are given 5 minutes to read the sheet carefully and try to take in as much of the information as you can. The interviewer then entered the room and proceeded with the role play in which I had to solve an issue for a customer. After the role play, I was asked a few questions about myself, M&S and why I wanted the role. The interviewer told me that they would get back to me the next day to let me know if I had passed the interview.

      Application

      I interviewed at Marks & Spencer (Bristol, England)

      Interview

      Was nice and simple - and the questions were good and they were really engaging in everything I was saying felt more like a conversation rather than an interview. Loved it everyone should apply to marks and Spencer’s big up

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Marks & Spencer (Cumbernauld, Scotland) in May 2026

      Interview

      The interview itself was very awkward, with no formal start to it from the person that I spoke to. I went into the store and asked the only person who didn't look busy, that person ended up being my interviewer however he didn't tell me that until we sat down in an office and the interview started. It really confused me which I think affected my performance
