      Anonymous employee
      London, England
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Royal Mail (London, England) in Jul 2017

      Interview

      Interview is with manager or line manager, easy questions, don't panic! Takes about 15-30 mins max. It starts formal but can become informal after all the structured questions are finished. Ask as many questions about the job so you can get an idea what it entails, I've seen many people start and leave a week later.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      How you dealt with difficult customers Safety in a van and the yard Health and safety in the office and outdoors Times when you went above and beyond Why you want the position
