      Retail Operative Interview

      Aug 18, 2014
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Primark

      Interview

      Applied and was emailed 5 days later with an interview slot for one week later. Interview was one-to-one. It included a question about a time working in a team when a member of the team has been holding everybody else back or words to that effect, a question about my experience giving presentations, a time where I've given good customer service, who are Primark's main competitors (no detail needed). They do not ask what you know about Primark but give their own information about the company at the end of the interview and they ask why you applied to Primark. During the interview there were 3 competency based questions (outlined above). However, it seemed as though the interviewer was able to choose between three options for each question so these could easily vary for each person. I left the interview and was told I'd hear back within a few days, was called within one hour of the interview and asked to start the following day.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Primark

      Interview

      I was invited to have an interview with a hiring manager. It was a short conversation (probably approximately 20 minutes), and I was asked only few questions. The interviewer focused especially on team-work.
