I applied online. I interviewed at Tesco in Dec 2023
Interview
it was relaxed and informal, really nice manager. Was taken to a backroom. Lasted around 30 minutes. Questions were average and not pressurised. Just be prepared for typical interview questions.
I applied online. I interviewed at Tesco in Apr 2026
Interview
very relaxed and asked basic interview questions like tell me about yourself, tell me about a time you worked as a team etc. Then talked about availability, training and induction.
Quite unorganised. They didn't seem to care when interviewing me. Couldn't find the person who was supposed to interview me. It seemed like they had already made their mind up before it even started.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Tesco (Bishops Cleeve, England) in Jun 2025
Interview
The person who was meant to interview me at 10am was made to work until 5am the previous night so the interview had to be rescheduled to later in the day after I made it to the store.
