I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Waitrose (Canterbury, England) in Feb 2018
Interview
I had a group interview with roughly 5 other people where we worked as a group to come up with ideas and present the answers to 5 questions relating to health and safety and working in a team. It was relatively easy. We had a sheet to fill out then, I was invited to a personal one on one interview, where i found my application had been highlighted as unsuitable, as I am a university student and would be unable to work summer months. I was basically invited to interview to waste my time. Was rejected on the spot, and left feeling quite upset and let down.

Question 1
why is health and safety important in a stock room?
Smooth, 1 stage interview. Group setting and we all answered questions to the best of our abilities. Really enjoyed the process as it was seamless and very fun. Really had a good time chatting with others.
Easy and very friendly. You do a group work task and then an individual interview. They focus mainly on situational questions to see how you problem solve and reason.
I got the job 2 days after the interview and I didn't think I done too well.
Friendly and relaxed one on one interview. Nothing too hard in terms of questions if you have done a little company research, and have some examples from previous employment where you can show examples of showing key skills needed in most jobs.
