I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Argos
Interview
Very relaxed, at ease interview. Lovely people to speak to, never felt rushed or pressured. Kept in contact with recruiters throughout, very pleased with the process.
Only advice would be to practise lots before the interview, as some questions were very well designed to make you think, and required a very in depth answer.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
What is the most stressful situation you have experienced in the work place?
straightforward question, nothing too challenging, interviewers were very friendly and relaxed and listened really well. Interview lasted around 25 minutes and found out i got the job in less than a week
A casual chat with the manager. Mainly focussed on availability and proximity to the store. Gave brief background and was told about the role and what it entails. The interview will vary manager to manager so any prep will help
It is a casual discussion. They really want to know how you handle tough customers and how quickly you can pick up work. As well as flexibility with time. As they need people to be multiskilled. Working back and front of house.
