I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Boots (Durham, England) in Jul 2014
Interview
Just a couple of questions in the office, about myself, remember a time when you had an awkward customer, must emphasize customer care as that is what boots is all about
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe any product we sell and try and sell it to 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.
