I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tesco (Macclesfield, England) in May 2023
Interview
The interview process was structured and professional. It began with an online application followed by a phone screening with HR. I was then invited to an in-person interview at the store, where I met with two senior managers. They asked competency-based questions and presented a roleplay scenario. The final step was a short assessment of team leadership and decision-making skills. Overall, the process took about two weeks.
