I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Primark (Merry Hill, England) in Sep 2013
Interview
The interview is not all that difficult - a few of the basics, then a few questions as detailed below. You may bring along your `record of achievement` like I did to try and impress, but just be confident in your answers and you will be fine! The interview was with the HR manager of that store. I remember talking a bit about myself, a bit about the company, before answering a few questions relating to the job role, experience and competencies, and ended with talking about my working availability.
Questions you would expect in majority retail roles. Questions about shop floor interactions. Customer interactions etc. There's only a few questions. Interview focuses the most on your soft skills and your approach to the retail environment.
