We were in a staff room and we had to introduce ourselves to everyone. Then we had to explain why we wanted to work for River Island. We had to pretend to be a customer and then a sales advisor and try to up sell as much as possible. Then we had spoke to the people in charge individually to talk about availability etc.
They were looking at us the whole time but we were all being really loud so I don't know how they made the final decision.

Pretty simple, wanted to know about availability, any previous experience within the retail industry and what about the company I knew about. Had some basic experience questions that the star technique comes in handy for!

J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez River Island en juin 2026
Entretien
My interview was done online with an ai bot who asks you questions. I answered them but I don’t think the questions are the same for everyone. But I did my best and in my opinion interviews online is better than face to face.
