I applied online. I interviewed at Boots (Glasgow, Scotland) in Apr 2026
Interview
In store interview. lasted less than 10 minutes. she asked me questions off a booklet of paper and couldnt have been less interested in what I had to say and barely looked at me, just nipped the end of my answers with okkkk. As someone who doesnt get nervous in interviews and is very outgoing, she made me fel incredibly small and anxious! Didnt get the job, wouldnt re-apply. Terrible recuitment process. What should have been an easy interview and simple customer service questions felt like the walls were closing in on me!
Private interview questions - pretty standard just based on experience and given loads of time to answer. Then taken to shop floor to pick a product and how I would recommend/sell it.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
What would I do if I seen a customer who was looking around the store quite confused
Easy enough interview, just asked the typical interview questions. Thought i fit the role well but did not receive an offer or any reason for not being selected. Interview took place in a cleaning closet, which i did find strange as it was opposite the staff break room.
The interview was an hour long. Questions were
asked around compentencies. I was then brought out onto the floor to interact with customers and demonstrate product knowledge. Overall, it was pleasent, good interview.
