      Retail Assistant Interview

      Feb 9, 2026
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Epsom, England
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Primark (Epsom, England) in Feb 2026

      Interview

      New store opening so interview process was different to an established store. After an online application and short online assessment, I was invited to a mass recruitment “interview”, where I was in a group with approximately 30 others in my preferred time slot. We signed in at a desk, received a name tag and were directed to a room with a video showing, which was all about Primark. Then we were moved into another room and given a short presentation outlining the interview and offer process, available shift patterns, salary and what to expect after the interview. After this, we were led to a hall where approximately 40 managers were seated at individual tables, and we were individually directed to whoever was free. The managers were from all over the UK. The interview itself was very straightforward and low pressure. It started by confirming my details, availability, salary expectations, any criminal convictions. Then moved onto questions of which there were about 8. Given the opportunity to ask questions at the end of the interview and was wished good luck. I expect to hear from them within 10 days.
