I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lush (Swansea, Wales) in Oct 2017
Interview
The first step was handing over a CV, the next was being invited to a group interview to do some tasks to see where and if you fit in, the third was a job offer. Though this may be different to permanent jobs, as I was only a Xmas temp worker.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Asked to perform tasks and to play games, to test how we interacted with each other, some of these involved products.
It was a group interview, very unconventional, hands-on, and activity-based, teamwork. They expect you to know their company values and ethics, which will carry over to your role. It was very relaxed and they made me feel very comfortable and heard.
I applied online. I interviewed at Lush (London, England)
Interview
Was offered an interview and it was fairly casual - in the cafe, and it only lasted around 45 minutes. Pretty much immediately after I was offered a trial shift, and I went and it was kind of horrible because we didn’t know anything about the products, and it also wasn’t very busy so it felt like we were competing with each other to get a customer’s attention, only to not even be able to give them proper information and just have to guess. It was a bit embarrassing and we didn’t get paid either, but we got a free shower gel. I found out I got the job on the way home from the trial shift.

Interview
Onboarding session and then a practice shift which involved you sitting customers down and demonstrating products on them. Lasts around an hour, and it’s done in groups of trial shifts.
