I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Primark in Jan 2016
Interview
I applied for a job around 20th December and was notified by email on the 5th January that they'd like me to attend an interview on the 10th. I had a phone call the day before the interview just to confirm that I got the email and would be attending. I arrived about five minutes early and went to the customer service desk where I told one of the girls that I was there for an interview. She took me upstairs to the interview room (first aid room haha) and reassured me that there was no need to be nervous, asked me about my current job etc, told me that she enjoys working there herself, said there's always plenty of overtime. She told me to take a seat if I wanted and said I shouldn't be waiting too long. Waited about five minutes and the lady who was interviewing me invited me in. She was really friendly and told me not to worry etc, very chatty and nice. Asked about me having a bank account etc. Told me not to worry as questions were easy.
Interview questions [7]
Question 1
A customer has seen a dress she likes in the window but can't find any in store. What would you do to help?
Great - the customer has found an alternative and would like to try it on. But she's on her dinner hour and doesn't have time to wait in the long queue. What do you suggest she does?
Once you apply for the job you got to give an assessment. try and answer the best way you can. in a week's time you will get a call asking about your availability. interview is simple and easy. Talk about your skills and good communication.

Interview
Interviewer was nice however they called me in expecting me to work days and hours that didn't match the advertised contract. I explained that I wasn't able to meet with them with their expected hours so we than eneded the interview early.
