Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Sports Direct.
Customer Assistant
After submitting my application, I had an interview within 7 days. It was an informal one-to-one. I dressed smart casual. They asked about any holidays I had booked and what hours I could work.
- Could you provide an instance of effective communication?
Customer Assistant
I was told to wait by a door to the left, but there was no sign or guidance, so I waited for 20 minutes. I was thinking of leaving when the manager came out. It was unprofessional to have a 15-minute delay with no apology or explanation. Another candidate was waiting after me because they took so long. During the interview, they lacked eye contact and attention, making me feel dismissed.
- Would you prefer to work in checkout, textiles, or stock?
Customer Assistant
It went pretty well, the store is nice and clean. The manager was great. I would recommend this place if you're just starting out. It could be a good fit to work alongside university or other part-time jobs, and you can get flexible hours.
- Can you tell me about your previous work commitments and your availability for work?
