Fragen im Vorstellungsgespräch zu Beschäftigung als Sales Assistant bei Matalan Retail

Group interview, exercises broken off into pairs like choosing outfits for certain age groups. Other than that it was more of a group discussion than an interview. Not many directed questions to individuals

I applied online and was invited to an interview within a few weeks. interview was fairly standard retail questions. A few scenarios were also given and i had to show my customers service skills.

easy, relaxed, short. no dress code seemed more for the paperwork than to actually see if i suited the job. i was just filling a space essentially. very very easy

I handed my CV in and got a call back the same day asking me to come to an interview the following saturday. There were around 15 of us around a table. We were given name tags and did around 3 activities. First we were asked if we knew anything about the company. Next, we had to throw a ball with a series of questions on , whatever question our thumb landed on , we had to answer. e.g. whats your 3 favourite foods. Then we did another activity where we had to remove items from their packaging without damaging it and then put them back in again. After , we all filled in a short questionnaire and put our availability down. There were around 3 interviewers who were all very nice. We weren't interviewed individually. I got the job but had to decline due to the astonishingly low pay for 17 year olds - £3.88

This interview was held in a hotel due to the shop not being open yet. We had to bring someone to the interview that best represented us. To begin with we had to introduce ourselves holding our item that represented us. We had a group interview to start with sat opposite the six managers. They asked a question and everyone had to give their own answers in front of everyone. We then had a role play in groups to act out a scenario. After we individually got called into a separate room for one to one questioning.

I was invited to the shop to be interviewed by a manager for roughly 20 minutes - half an hour. After this, I was invited to an induction day with other new employees.

Gave CV in to store and got phone call a few days later, inviting me to a one to one interview. The interview was around 20 minutes and I was told I will be contacted within 3 weeks.

friendly and positive vibes, came across as a good company to work for with a lot of potential to grown within the business. All around good. I felt comfortable and at ease, not at all nervous- this was due to my interviewer having a positive attitude towards me.

Assessment day first you start of with ice breaker- pair up, you need to introduce your partner- you have 5-10 minute to discuss with your partner. you need to remember what you have learn from discussion as you would use this to introduce your partner in front of the group. Ice breaker with the matalan team- talk about favourite disney movie or character then after, group activity- role play- good and bad customer service after one on one interview

After taking my cv into the store i received the call to go for the interview. I went in and was asked questions about my past experience etc and why I wanted to work there. I then had to fill in forms to say when I would be available to work if I was selected. Within a couple of days I had a phone call to offer me a small contract which is what they start everybody on.
