I applied in-person. I interviewed at Marks & Spencer (Manchester, England) in Dec 2025
Interview
Quite informal, the interviewer write your answer in A4 white paper and asked around 5 short questions. Better arrive early as the staff won't directly take you to interviewer, just giving guildline and you need to find the ways by your own.

Interview
Initially went and the last candidate overran (i waited for 40 minutes extra) so my interview got moved to next week. Original interviewer wasn't available so a colleague performed it. They could not find the interview sheet so had to come up with questions on the spot and get my details again. I was a bit annoyed but I think the interview was okay.

I interviewed at Marks & Spencer (London, England)
Interview
Very chilled out interview with a few questions about simple stuff like what you would do in a confrontational event. Really nice interviewer, felt more like a chat than an interview.
