I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Tesco (Helsby, England) in Mar 2012
Interview
As far as a conversation interview wen it was a fair and level process, nothing terribly intimidating. HR manager was the interviewer, a basic set of questions to judge character and set boundaries of expectation.
Interview was around 2.5 hours in total. Started with a group interview then 20 minutes on the shop floor shadowing a checkout colleague then finally a 1 to 1 interview with a manager.
Nice environment. Kind people. Asked the right questions and I felt I could ask any questions i had. Overall I enjoyed the experience and would recommend to other people to do an interview with them.
Very easy, just asked a few questions about my experience and my availability on time etc. what days i can work and my flexability on the dates i can do
