Split into small groups and had to do a variety of activities including role playing, selling a specific toy, answering random lighthearted questions. After the activities, they will call out names of people who made it to the next round of interviews. This part is just a short 1:1 interview
I applied online. I interviewed at Hamleys (London, England) in Jul 2025
Interview
Group interviews and then private interviews - you’re meant to describe toys and sell them to multiple staff that are watching. You’re meant to answer random questions as well. Some will be ‘what’s your favourite ____’
I first submitted my CV and then went through an initial screening with HR, followed by an in-person interview with the Marketing Manager. After that, I had a meeting with the Head of HR, and finally a last-stage interview with the VP of Retail. It was quite a long process with multiple stages throughout.
