I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Marks & Spencer in Sep 2024
Interview
Easy interview, asked a couple of questions and availability. The interviewer was very friendly and advised it was just an informal interview.
Basically said that I had passed the interview so I got my hopes up thinking I was going to be offered the job.
It’s been 2 weeks and I haven’t heard a thing, would be nice to hear back regardless if you’ve got the job or not.

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.
