Waitrose interview questions

Firstly I was shown into a room with the other interviewees and asked to fill out a standard form name, uniform size etc and then we were told we would be the second group to go in. We went into another room about 6 of us and we had a scenario and bullet points to answer on flip chart paper. Two staff members were observing us and said we had 15 mins to answer all the questions as a group and present it at the end with our flipchart. The questions were quite simple e.g. healthy and safety, how to make a space more presentable, teamwork. That part was easy just make sure you input something for each point and work well with the group to show you're a team player. After we went back to the other room and waited to have our individual interviews. I got on really well with the lady who interviewed me, she was really friendly, so I was put at ease and we were able to have a casual chat. She asked me "tell me about yourself' "what hobbies do you do outside of work" " what is your greatest achievement" "why do you want to work at Waitress" then there were 4 main job questions "what opportunities and challenges do you think you will face doing a night shift" "explain a time when you had to change your approach, tell me why and what the outcome was" "explain a time when you had to challenge another person on your team, why and what was the outcome" and I can't remember the other one. We then went through my form and I asked any questions I had. I got an offer email a week later.

To begin I completed 2 online tests (situational awareness and another more general questionnaire). After passing those I was very quickly informed I had been invited to an interview and within a week I was attending my interview. The group interview part consisted of being given a selection of products and customer profiles. We were given 5 minutes of individual reading and then 15 minutes of group discussion in order to assign the products to the best suited customer. Following that we filled out paper work with general questions and information about our requirements for uniform sizing. I was then taken in for the one-to-one interview. This lasted about 10 minutes. The woman conducting the interview was very pleasant and calm. The questions asked were very standard interview questions with a slight emphasis on questions to judge your ability to work under pressure or in group situations. Having been told i would find out whether or not I had been given the job within a couple of weeks, I did very quickly get an email to say I had passed the interview and they would be contacting me by phone if my time and availability matched with an acceptable vacancy. However, i have since not received any contact regarding my application.
