I interviewed at Co-op (Stockton-on-Tees, England)
Interview
Interview was easy. They already have questions which they will be asking in the interview. They asked those questions and didn’t ask other questions. Overall it was a good experience.

Question 1
Describe a situation when you handled a difficult customer ?
I applied online. I interviewed at Co-op in Jun 2026
Interview
It was nice and smooth and very intuitive. I liked how I had help from the website to prepare for the interview and so I was able to fully explain my previous experience.

Question 1
Give me a time when you stood up for yourself or someone else
I applied in-person. I interviewed at Co-op (Stotfold, England) in Jun 2026
Interview
The interview was relaxed and friendly. The interviewer asked questions about my availability, customer service, teamwork, and previous experience. They also explained the role and what it would involve. I had the opportunity to ask questions at the end, and the interview lasted around 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Very impersonal. All done online and the logic between what constitutes a good or bad answer is totally unidentifiable. You would have better luck turning up in person and asking if you can hand in your CV and interview in person instead!
