I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Co-op in Nov 2009
Interview
I walked into the store to purchase an item, and the Duty Manager asked me if I wanted a job. I was looking at the time, so made arrangements for an interview a few days later. The interview was incredibly informal and laid back, and I was offered the job before the interview was concluded.
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Co-op in Dec 2009
Interview
It was very standardised and competancy based, they seem to want you to provide answers in a fragmented and ridiculous story like style with a clear begining middle and end, not seeming to appreciate the complexities of situations. Conduct a presentation, you are pressurised to use a flip chart, something which was fairly annoying and a tad outdated.

Interview
I had to firstly partake in a phone interview which I believe I was successfull enough to get into the one on one interview. However the turning point was in the interview they asked where i saw myself in 5 years time and me being me i told them the truth that i intended to be a pharmacist. They werent best pleased with me to tell the truth.
