I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Primark in Sep 2016
Interview
I applied online and got a phone call the next day to book an interview time. My interview was at 4:30 so I arrived at 4:15 and ended up waiting until 5pm until I was finally called into my interview. I was then asked for my Passport and National Insurance Number, which I gave to the manager. Then at 5:10pm my interview finally started. The questions were pretty basic including a few scenarios and general questions including my available hours, etc. The manager said they'd be in touch within a week, I ended up waiting 2 weeks.

Question 1
What is your main strength/ attribute to this role?
I interviewed at Primark (Belfast, Northern Ireland)
Interview
Rushed interview with a lot of chaos ensuing around the store. Wasn’t properly told where to go or how to get out. Slightly confusing. The interview was pretty generic and a bit too long in my opinion
