I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Waitrose (Guildford, England) in Jul 2022
Interview
Quick and smooth interview process that consisted of written questions and an interview with my now line manager that wasn't time consuming to complete and was flexible to my availlability.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you think you would be a good fit for this role ?
Pretty easy, just asked about experience and strengths. Then did a group exercise where we had to prioritise tasks. Then we had to talk about why we chose certain things and what impact it had on sales
The recruitment process comprised of one online task, one round of in-person group tasks (based on real life scenarios) and then a one to one interview. The online task, in-person group tasks and one to one questions were straightforward.
Short initial interview with typical questions asked during any other behavioural interview. Might have been an initial online screening asking about how you are in the workplace and your personality.
Hiring manager was very friendly and patient.
