Got an online interview, with some typed questions first, then some video questions. The typed part was with an AI chatbot. They sent this interview about half a day after I applied on Indeed.

After applying through the River Island portal and uploading my CV, there was a quick online part with some questions about past experience. I then got an email inviting me to a group interview. During the group interview, we were given tasks like discussing good/bad customer service, doing icebreakers, and choosing an outfit for an event and explaining why. We also answered basic competency questions, such as how to handle a shoplifter. I received a call the same day offering me the job.
