I applied online. I interviewed at Waitrose (Harrogate, England) in Aug 2015
Interview
The process began with a group interview (comprising about eight people) followed by a one-to-one interview. In the group interview, we were asked to collaborate to find a solution to a potential problem on the shop floor.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Give an example of a time when you overcame a challenging situation in the workplace.
I just had a 10 minute interview with a manager. Quite difficult questions but manager was pretty friendly. They didn’t note that I was a uni student so couldn’t be permanent.
I attended a group interview, we then had one to ones where by they asked me why I wanted to work for the company, whether I knew the background of waitrose and did I have previous experience
