I applied online. I interviewed at Waitrose (Cheltenham, England) in Nov 2017
Interview
I had to complete several online assessments to test if I was suitable for an interview. Then I got invited for a group assessment and a one to one interview at the store. The interviews in store were relatively simple. However, the online assessments before hand mean it takes a while to even get an interview
