I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Primark (Boston, MA) in Jul 2015
Interview
This was a hiring event and my interviewer was very professional. They sat us down in a room to watch an informative video on what Primark was as a retail company.
I had to apply online answering scenario questions, then it was a phone interview, and finally an onsite interview. The process between applying online to getting an onsite interview was within 2 weeks.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
How would you adapt to this fast pace environment?
Individual phone interview asking basic questions about sales experience in fast-paced environments and expectations. As I already worked for another store in a different location I didn't have to attend to a second interview. Once I got it, there was a induction day talking about the business, its mission and values.
Usually have a group interview, and then have an individual one with two managers. They will ask you situational questions, and then questions about yourself. Received a call back the next day.
Concise and to the point: CV review and experience highlights, with questions on each role and how my responsibilities, skills, and impact would translate to Primark and future career fit.
