I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Marks & Spencer (High Wycombe, England) in Nov 2017
Interview
As with everything M&S nothing new is it any great speed the neither does the recruitment process I would say it is basic full of holes and in reality comes down to how good the person is interviewing you on whether or not you are the right person for the role. To be honest you’re in the role-play if you had enough confidence you would walk out however if you have any insecurities this could hold you back in this process when in fact she may blossom in reality
