I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Tesco (Dublin, Dublin) in Sep 2016
Interview
Interview was short, held in a dingy room above a store. Hiring manager was friendly and engaged but as there was clearly many candidates before and after me to interview, was brief and didn't ask many indepth questions. Did not recieve any response after interview at all, not even a rejection. Very unprofessional as it could be fully automated but they just didn't bother.
Brilliant very professional and slick from the start. Phone then FaceTime to face , found it very soon after I had been successful. Everyone made me feel at ease. Manager seemed really happy to work there which helped me.
The Tesco interview process usually includes an online application, short phone or video screening, then an in-person interview with customer service questions, availability discussion, teamwork scenarios, and sometimes simple role-based assessments.
