I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Tesco (Chippenham, South West England, England) in Aug 2016
Interview
Applied online and they completed online checks on me. Few weeks later I received a phone call asking if I was available for an interview. Interview went well and completed store practise. Next day got a phone call to confirm I got the job. Week later I had an induction.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Tell me a time where you worked under pressure, how did you perform under pressure?
Completed a fairly short interview with two existing staff members (including manager) and then headed downstairs to do a trial shift to check how you performed on the checkouts and interacted with customers.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a time you have helped a customer or client.
It was simple, basically why do you want to join Tesco and some soft skill questions. Tell me about a time you worked in a group, try to answer in STAR format.
It was done by a manager in a back room. It was formal and it was about 20 minutes asking about experience, peoples skills etc. this might have changed as this was like 6 years ago now
