Interview
I had the whole standardised procedure of asking me my details and if I've had any work experience etc. I was asked questions such as "when was the last time you did group work?" and if I knew anything about the company. I was also given scenario questions where I had to explain what I would do in certain situations.

Question 1
In what situation were you recently in where you showed groupwork?
In the store, I was initially asked a few questions to gather more details and specifications. Following that, my task was to assemble an outfit based on the materials available in the store within a 20-minute window. This challenge not only tested my sense of fashion but also my familiarity with materials and efficiency. Within this constrained timeframe, I had to quickly sift through suitable attire, ensuring each piece harmonized well with others, aiming to fulfill the client's expectations. It was a genuine test of my professional expertise and efficiency.
