I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tesco (Oldham, England) in Oct 2014
Interview
The first question was and always tends to be- tell me more about yourself. Here you want to sell yourself say good things about yourself. Things that they would want to hear regarding the job. I talked about myself going gym and enjoying physical activities as part of my job is physical , moving cages from one place to another. Make sure you don't tell ur life story or bore them cos that's the last thing u wanna do.
After this I got asked scenario based questions such as: name a time you have worked under pressure? Name a time you had change your behaviour to suit someone else? What would you do if someone challenged your way of doing something, how would u handle the situation and would you challenge others? And finally what is your integrity? These were the questions she asked me I got put on the spot but managed to answer them. Make sure you prepare or it could be drastically awkward.
I was then given a tour of the store and shown where everything is.
Overall I'm giving it a neutral rating only because I struggle to stay calm and panic a lot :( if u are confident and calm you can ace this.
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
Easy breezy, answer why you want to work there and they give you scenario questions which are easy to provide narrative on. Just use your initiative and they will hire you
