I applied online. I interviewed at Co-op (London, England) in Jun 2022
Interview
It is an online questionnaire of like 8 questions. Each question is a scenario you might experience whilst in that job role. You have an option of 4 answers. Each answer is a possible action you might take in the given scenario. Attached to each answer is a selection of 4 options: 1) I would do that 2) I might do that 3) I’m unlikely to do that 4) I would never do that.

Thank you for your review. All our questions are designed around behaviours rather than specific experience and not meant to trip you up in anyway. We're looking for your natural responses to everyday real-life situations, be honest if you haven't been in that situation before, but do think about what you might do in that situation. What would your tone of voice be like? How would you structure the conversation or message? Applying the STAR technique will help.
