I applied online. I interviewed at Tesco (Manchester, Inglaterra) in Sep 2017
Interview
Applied online, recieved email to book interview date online, gave me 2 weeks to prepare for interview, attended interview early and was told to wait in staff room, with around 7 other applicants, staff came and handed us forms to fill out, took us upstairs to the interview room.
GROUP INTERVIEW: asked interview questions, and everyone had to shout out their answers (kinda nervous on this part), see questions below
GROUP TASK: then asked to get into 2 groups, and build a 6ft tower out of paper and straws that had to stand up for 1 minute. Note - the aim of the exercise is not to ultimately build the tower, but interviewers look at everyones group work skills and leadership, so I really took charge on this part (probs why I passed because I flopped part A)

I applied online. I interviewed at Tesco in Sep 2017
Interview
After applying online I received a phone call about 3 days later, I was invited in for an interview the following week which was a one on one interview asking questions about experience with customers. After the first interview I was told I may be invited to a second interview and will hear back shortly, the a few days after I was invited to the second interview which was a group interview with people being interviewed for all different types of roles. In the group interview we were asked to create a 6 foot tall tower out of paper and duct tape within 20 minutes and at the end they asked people questions like who do you think took control of the group. After the group interview had ended we then waited for our individual interviews, the 2nd interview was quite long lasting about 2 and a half hours.

I applied online. I interviewed at Tesco (Belfast, Irlanda del Norte) in Jul 2017
Interview
The processes took about 4 weeks. I received a phone call 3 weeks after I applied and had the interview a week later. The interview itself was very quick- only lasted about 10 mins. I was interviewed by 2 managers who were extremely friendly. I was told I would hear back that weekend whether I got the job or not.
