Interview
The interview was fine, we were split into groups to see how we work within a team. They also asked us to brainstorm ideas on how to layout a store to fit the Christmas theme.
Group interview in groups of 5 coming up with ideas for possible christmas events at John Lewis. You had to come up with ideas for what food would be served and what activities people could take part in while ensuring that these activities would work in the setting of a John Lewis store.

Come up with ideas for christmas events at John Lewis
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at John Lewis & Partners (Cardiff, Wales) in Oct 2024
Interview
Big group interview, followed by a one to one fast paced timed (5 min) interview. In the group interview, asked to come up with ideas for a charity event. The one to one consists of a few set questions you are asked and your answers recorded, there's no discussion and it is timed so feels quite intense.
