It was super chill. Honestly, I think I overdid it by wearing a suit since it was my first part-time job interview, lol. But yeah, the interviewer wanted to hear more about me, my background, previous work experience, what I'm looking for in the role, my understanding of the position, and what I know about Sports Direct. They also asked about my availability and then had me do a role-play where I had to sell them a magazine and an in-sole.

Standard competency based interview. Fairly easy as I was applying for a part time role. Was fairly easy and relaxed throughout. Asked about previous work, education, skills and characteristics I can bring to the team. Asked about flexibility and ranges of hours I can work weekly.

I applied online and got called in for a brief, casual chat with the assistant manager. I was dressed in jeans and a polo shirt. They offered me the job right then and there, and I got an email later that week.
