I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at John Lewis & Partners (London, England) in Feb 2019
Interview
One week after completing an online application form for the role, I was invited to attend an interview. Along with my invitation to interview, I was sent a fairly vague and ambiguous case study and was asked to prepare a 10minute presentation using this, which would be part of the interview.
The interview itself was carried out by 2 individuals in a very small room. It began with me delivering my presentation. The interviewer informed me that this would be timed and would be stopped at the 10min mark in order to be fair to other candidates. Following completion of the presentation, we went straight into questions. This was a mix of competency based questions and questions relating to my CV/experience. Some example questions are below. In total, the entire process lasted approx 1 hour. The interviewers made for a fairly relaxed atmosphere.
Approximately 2 weeks following the interview, I was informed that my application wasn't successful. I requested some feedback, and approximately 1 week following my request I was provided with some.
