I applied online. I interviewed at Primark (Norwich, England) in Jan 2022
Interview
The interview is usually informal and customer-focused, either one-to-one or in a small group. You’ll be asked situational and strength-based questions about teamwork, customer service, reliability, and working in a fast-paced environment. Some interviews include a short shop-floor task or availability discussion. The focus is on attitude, communication, flexibility, and how you handle customers and busy periods, rather than formal experience. Scoring is based on examples, enthusiasm, and cultural fit.
