I applied online. I interviewed at Co-op in Jun 2026
Interview
It was nice and smooth and very intuitive. I liked how I had help from the website to prepare for the interview and so I was able to fully explain my previous experience.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Give me a time when you stood up for yourself or someone else
It was quite a simple interview as all the questions were sent to me already via e-mail so I just practiced answering them for the face to face interview. The way you come across is very important and confidence is key.

Thank you for sharing your experience of interviewing with us. We share our interview questions ahead of the interview so you can prepare and be comfortable on the day. Reviews like yours help people understand what to expect.
Very impersonal. All done online and the logic between what constitutes a good or bad answer is totally unidentifiable. You would have better luck turning up in person and asking if you can hand in your CV and interview in person instead!

Very insistent on working as many days/times as possible even if you are studying
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Co-op (Bournemouth, England) in May 2026
Interview
The interview process was very easy and straightforward. The interviewer was kind and made it feel more like a friendly, comfortable conversation than a formal interview. As well as one of the best interviews I've actually had.
