I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Primark (Walsall, England) in Apr 2016
Interview
It was simple, I was asked for my passport and NI, then was called into the interview with the manager who was very nice and very comfortable to talk to. He started off with basic questions about my availability and commute time to work. Then moved on to competency based questions. And then ended with more simple questions. The interview was very short, 10 minutes at most.
If you helped find the woman an alternative dress, and she wanted to try it on but the changing rooms were very busy, and she was in a rush, what would you do?
One on one with the team manager of the department which i was about to get hired. He asked me situasional question like "How would you deal with an angry customer?" or "How do you cooperate in team when you have a bad day"
In the interview, I was told about the working hours and was asked several behavioural questions, as well as why I want to work at Primark and what I know about the Company and its values.
The process begins with an online assessment to evaluate initial skills and qualifications, and candidates who pass this stage are then invited to attend a formal in-person interview for further evaluation.
