I should have applied through the disability confident scheme, and was informed it was between me and someone else. The other person had more points. On the Coop careers site, it says that when they are choosing, they use a points score, so someone with school qualifications would get the job above someone with no qualifications, which was me. I had no qualifications due to my medical condition. If I had opted to use the disability confident scheme, this would have been taken into consideration. It was totally my own doing for not ticking the box.

Behavioral Presentation Other
It was a face to face interview with lots of scenario based questions. I was asked to complete a store walk and list things I would improve but was not asked anything about this in the interview so unsure why this was requested. It took around 2 weeks for them to come back to me regarding the outcome. Unfortunately I was not successful and they did not provide feedback, after advising in the interview that they would for this role.
