I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Co-op (Leeds, England) in Jul 2020
Interview
Applied online and did the is co-op right for you assessment. Few days later got an email inviting me to an interview with the store manager. Really friendly and chilled guy, first asked some introductory questions and then went onto the behavioural questions. Then told me about co-op's history and asked about my availability. Next day got a phone call offering me a job. Overall was an easygoing application process.
I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Co-op in Aug 2010
Interview
More just a formal Q and A than an actual interview. Judging by some of the staff I worked with, there is no vetting for professionalism or ability. Seems like they are just crying for people a the moment.

Question 1
The most difficult question asked of me was my national insurance number.
