I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Marks & Spencer (Birmingham, England) in Nov 2013
Interview
did a situational judgment online test which was fairly easy. than was invited into store and had a role play the manager showed me a magazine and I had to try and sell sale products, it was fairly easy. at the end I had a 1 to 1 and they asked typical questions ie why do you want to work for us etc and what experience I had, how flexible was I , what do I believe is team work. what is good customer service.
Very laid back, three interview questions (why M&S?, why would you fit the role etc) then asked for right to work and availability. Called back a few days later (after the weekend) to be offered the position.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Marks & Spencer
Interview
One on one interview - did role play scenario which is basically seeing if you have the skills to identify where you can cross-sell related products to customers (e.g. looking for sunglasses, direct them to an offer on suncream). Then asked generic questions asking why you want to work for the company, how would you deal with certain situations

It started off as a screening group interview. After a week i got given an actual face-to-face interview. The interview had 3 stages and was relatively quick. I signed my contract on the actual day and got a guideline timetable of my beginning shifts.
