I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Primark (Cambridge, England) in Jan 2011
Interview
Just simple interview with a HR advisor, basic competency questions 'why primark' etc. and availability. Application form online previously with competency questions and numerical testing- actually quite difficult for a part time job. Following job offer had to attend many training sessions about health and safety and corporate ethics.

One on one with the team manager of the department which i was about to get hired. He asked me situasional question like "How would you deal with an angry customer?" or "How do you cooperate in team when you have a bad day"
In the interview, I was told about the working hours and was asked several behavioural questions, as well as why I want to work at Primark and what I know about the Company and its values.
