I applied online. I interviewed at ASDA (Hastings, , , England) in Nov 2012
Interview
You have a group interview playing games and building things out products, followed by job trial and then one to one interview all about customer service and being friendly, flexibility just seeing what sort of person you are.

Interview
I remember coming on this website for tips regarding my own Asda interview, so I thought I should help the next person! I applied online on the 16th of January and I received and invite to an Asda magic assessment 2 days later. I attended the assessment on the Friday 22nd of January, which involved checking our right to work documents (I cannot stress how important it is that you bring original, acceptable documents! No excuses, they will send you home immediately- 2 people were asked to leave!) We also had t fill in a form which asks us to select the departments we would like to work in and the hours we can commit to. We later introduced each other (be relaxed and don't try too hard, just be friendly and human!), then we had to create our own advert for 2 asda brand products and 2 popular-branded products in groups, which is quite fun. I had Heinz soup and Cherry coca cola. We next took a tour of the store, and we had the opportunity to ask the manager any questions. Then we were asked to come up with ideas for Asda's community outreach and present them. We were then told that we will be invited to an interview if we're successful or not in a few days. I was called by admin the following Wednesday (27th) to come for a one-to-one interview. I came on Monday the 1st of February and was given the job!

I applied online. I interviewed at ASDA (Plymouth, England) in Dec 2014
Interview
A lot of team work and building/creating something with items that are given to you. To see who had ideas and who could work as a team and our reactions to each other as well. Some wear leaders and others followers. While some just complained. There were 4 line mangers, Personnel Manager and Deputy Manager who all took part or observed. Then we all had one to one interviews after.
