I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at NEXT
Interview
After application there is a four stage interview.
Firstly, an app reaction time/ logical game type process. Secondly, a virtual interview in which I had to record in two sections and send off to be reviewed (can re-record a s many times as you wish). Then I had a 15 minute virtual interview- more about myself and the company, including a Math tests involving percentage scenarios.
Lastly, my final stage virtual interview ran for two hours. It stared with a half an hour 'ranking' task which I then had to present and also included more math tests and analyzing data test
Can be time consuming as the first stage is to submit your CV and cover letter, then you are asked to answer some questions in a video style format, followed by an virtual interview and then an assessment day.

Question 1
If you cannot handle quick fire maths questions, this may not be an ideal role for you.
I applied online. I interviewed at NEXT (Leicester, England) in Apr 2026
Interview
The first stage, after submitting your CV and a cover letter, is a simple video interview where you must submit answers (pre-recorded) to 3 questions. The questions were relatively simple and you could re-record your answers if you made any mistakes. The third question was more scenario based where they gave you an example of something that could go wrong and you needed to give options to prevent it happening in the future. The second part of this stage is a maths test with around 10 questions. It isn't timed but they do say they keep track of how long you took for each, and factor that and if they are correct, into your final result.
Very scenario heavy and requires you to know a lot about merchandising in general. Some maths questions also involved, simple maths however. Best of luck to all applying to the role.
