I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Primark in May 2024
Interview
Very easy interview process. However it’s a very rushed environment and they expect a lot from you with little pay. Very unorganised wouldn’t recommend to work here. Quick process though
It was a very clear and easy to follow interview process. Overall it took about 30 minutes to complete. There was two people from Primark attending the interview and then myself.
