I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at John Lewis & Partners in Oct 2019
Interview
Online process of assessments. Once passed leads to being invited to group interview. Small groups of up to 8, individual planning, then feeding back to group to collectively come up with a solution, then feeding back to accessor. More scenario based questions at the end but these were to be individually completed.

Very interactive, mix of group work and individual questions to give everyone an opportunity to showcase their skills.

Question 1
A customer has this issue (example), how should it be resolved?
Group interview, a series of task you need to read through and determine the best course of action. No one to one interview which means you really have to stand out when talking in the group.
