      Customer Assistant -Tesco Interview

      15 May 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Colchester, England
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Tesco (Colchester, England) in May 2015

      Interview

      I applied online and went through some tests to do with customer service etc. After a few days I got a few applications coming back as unsuccessful but there were still 5 in process. About a week after applying I got a call from the recruitment manager at the Colchester Hythe store in Essex and was asked to come in for an interview, we first had to sign in at customer services and wait for the rest of the group (in this case 4 others). We were taken through to a private room in the back and had to fill in some forms to do with available working hours and health etc, the basics really. The next bit is rather amusing, we had to build a 6ft tower that would stand for 1 minute using flip chart paper, a4 paper and masking tape. Needless to say we failed but with some props or would have been fine. We then were asked 2 customer focused questions and a informal one to ease the pressure (if you weren't already relaxed at this point), the question are below. Next was a bit of work experience where we all got taken to different places in the store, I was taking to the deli counter and taught how to prepare meat and use the scales with label printer. Normally we would have to serve customers but as it was quiet I just had a chat with the deli counter manager, once half an hour was up we then went back to the room and were told it was the end of the interview and went to sign out. The interview was Tuesday 12th May, I was told I will find out by tomorrow Saturday 16th May if I have got the job. Unfortunately glass door doesn't have an option for still waiting.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Tesco (Nottingham, England)

      Interview

      Firstly, I was asked for all the necessary documents for check. Then a few questions were asked. Later I was walked through the whole process of what happens if I get hired. It was very comfortable, almost like you're having a casual conversation with a colleague.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Tesco (London, England) in Jan 2025

      Interview

      Very straightforward I wasn’t sure what they would ask as it’s an easy job but basic knowledge is minimal. Have a basic level of English, understanding law and having common sense is key
