I went into the office for the interview. It was a really chill and nice vibe in there. The whole thing was just 15 minutes and they asked me some behavioral questions and one about me specifically.

Group Presentation Behavioral

The interview had 3 parts. First, a casual chat to introduce ourselves to managers and other candidates. Then, a task where we were partnered up to create an outfit for a scenario by going around the store. After that, we presented our outfit to the group, explaining our choices. Lastly, a brief one-to-one with a manager. It was fun and friendly, so be ready to be sociable.

We had a laid-back chat in person, and then the next day I went in for a trial run on the shop floor. The questions were pretty chill and focused on my past experiences. They wanted me to wear casual clothes and just be myself. The main thing they were looking for was someone who enjoys talking to customers and connects well with them. They also asked about my interests and hobbies outside of work to get a sense of the kind of person I am.

I was contacted by phone for a very informal interview. The manager, who seemed disorganized and had forgotten I was coming (even calling the morning of the interview without my CV or papers ready), asked a few standard questions. Although the vacancy didn't fit my schedule, the manager offered to try and adjust the rotas to accommodate me.

  • Can you share an instance where you surpassed your own expectations?
  • Describe a situation where you had to handle a challenging customer.
  • Could you identify our competitors, explain what you know about our company, and describe our target audience?
