I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Marks & Spencer (London, England) in May 2015
Interview
For the first interview I had a role play and had to answer basic questions about why I would work for M & S and why they should pick me. I was then given the job there (Temp). For my Permanent interview I had to do a very short role play and have a conversation with a manager.

I interviewed at Marks & Spencer (Milton Keynes, England)
Interview
Initially went and the last candidate overran (i waited for 40 minutes extra) so my interview got moved to next week. Original interviewer wasn't available so a colleague performed it. They could not find the interview sheet so had to come up with questions on the spot and get my details again. I was a bit annoyed but I think the interview was okay.
