Question 1
Upon talking about my previous retail experience, was asked to name a time where I experienced a difficult customer/issue
Easy, and very friendly. It didn't feel like the interviewer was looking for faults. I did not find it particularly stressful and it was lovely when i met some current employees

Interview
I applied online and got an interview 2 days later. Went in for the interview and the manager was the nicest person ever. It was very casual nothing to be too nervous about, even though I was stressing for days as it was my first ever interview. But it was good overall and lasted around 30 mins.
