I applied online. I interviewed at Waitrose (Oxford, England) in Dec 2019
Interview
Interview took place in their office and it was a casual style interview like a brief chat outlining what the job entails etc, then i was asked what hours/shift pattern I was hoping to do and then asked three straightforward interview questions then offered the job on the spot straight afterwards

Question 1
very easy process- typical interview questions
1) describe a time you dealt with a difficult customer and how you resolved it.
2) how do you prioritize tasks?
3 simple questions, quick personality discussion. Friendly interviewer. As long as you demonstrate company values and come across as flexible, it's straightforward. Prior to the interview there are lots of online tests.
