J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez River Island (Basildon, South East England, England) en avr. 2015
Entretien
Applied online and received an email asking to book an interview slot the following day, booked the only slot available which was for early in the morning for in three days time and was told that my interview would be a 15 minute long one to one/single interview. When I arrived myself and 4 other people were left waiting for about 10/15 minutes not sure what was going on whilst staff ran around not telling us anything. We were all finally taken into a staff room and told that an email was supposed to be sent out with separate times with 15 minute intervals so that we could have single interviews as they don't do group interviews anymore but everyone had been emailed the same time and so we had to be interviewed as a group. One of the others being interviewed was chatting to members of staff and admitted that his best friends mum was one of the managers and so it felt a bit like he had the job before he even got there and it was all a waste of time. We were told that we would all hear back within an hour or two telling us either way if we got the job or not however Its two days later and still no word, I spoke to a couple of the others and they said they haven't heard anything either. We're guessing the guy with the connections got it.

Entretien
Group interview of around 15. First task was saying your name a bit about you out loud, just general information it seems like name age what you do. Then the second task was writing down good customer service and bad customer service in your little group and reading it out to the group. During this, they are checking to see what you say, but try not to talk over anyone but definitely stand out. The second task was getting clothes from the shop floor presenting your outfit and explaining your choice. I don’t believe they cared too much about your previous experience but rather your personality.

Fine, questions not always relevant but seems like a personality test I suppose. Nice enough interview in general. Quite quick interview, didn’t end up getting the job though , oh well
