The hiring process was really quick and straightforward. I handed my CV in at the store, and the manager interviewed me right then and there. They asked me about my customer service background and some standard interview questions, like asking for an instance where I've collaborated within a team and how I'd handle a difficult customer situation.

First, get familiar with Co-op's core values, which they really care about - Succeed Together, Be Yourself, Always, Show You Care, and Do What Matters Most. Then, you'll do an online application with your CV and cover letter, making sure to use their language and give examples based on the values. You might also have online assessments like SJTs (testing values), reasoning tests, and maybe an automated video interview with 3-5 questions about values and behaviors. After that, there's usually a phone or video call with a recruiter or manager to talk about why you want to work there, your understanding of Co-op, salary, and right to work. For corporate roles, expect an assessment centre or final interview panel. This could involve a group exercise, maybe a role-play or customer simulation to see how you 'Show You Care', a written exercise, and a competency-based interview.
