I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Lush in Sep 2015
Interview
Was a group interview and was a great atmosphere. We first got put into pairs on each group had to introduce one another with an interesting fact about the other. The rest of the night we was in small groups and did little workshops. One of the groups we had to create a poster and campaign idea that we would present back to everyone at the end of the evening. The second workshop was on bath bombs and we had to sell a bath bomb to our group. Was a really fun informal interview that was a great experience
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.
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Lush (Cardiff, Wales)
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.
