I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Tesco (Dunfermline, Scotland) in Oct 2016
Interview
Group interview. Questions were not directly asked to anyone, but to the group as a whole. 4 managers sitting at the back scoring you on your answers, while the people manager was asking them.
Also had to do a group exercise - build a 6ft tall tower from paper and sellotape. This is to demonstrate teamwork, so make sure you speak up.
The group was then split into 2, one group went to the checkouts and we had to offer to pack customers bags. The other group went to the shelfs and had to move products to the front and get rid of cardboard.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
What did you do for a customer that you normally wouldn't do?
Interview was around 2.5 hours in total. Started with a group interview then 20 minutes on the shop floor shadowing a checkout colleague then finally a 1 to 1 interview with a manager.
Nice environment. Kind people. Asked the right questions and I felt I could ask any questions i had. Overall I enjoyed the experience and would recommend to other people to do an interview with them.
Very easy, just asked a few questions about my experience and my availability on time etc. what days i can work and my flexability on the dates i can do
