Question 1
Previous Experience in Retail and dealing with difficult customers.
I applied online. I interviewed at Waitrose (Sheffield, England) in Apr 2018

Was invited to interview, it was very quick and the questions were quite easy behavioural ones. They didn't tell me before the interview that they were looking for a food service partner- only told me in the interview. I would have preferred to have known prior but it was fine in the end.
