I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Currys (Dublin, Dublin) in Jul 2014
Interview
Interview was very friendly, didn't feel like an interview, felt like more of a chat. Quick response back following interview. Questions asked were easy to answer, although having been in the job for a while I can see that this interview style often does not work in the company's favour

Question 1
If you were asked to describe what a mobile phone is to a caveman how would you describe it?
Briefly talk about skills in upselling and sales pitches with customers. They are more interested in upselling insurances and add-on products/services. Technical knowledge on products is not necessary, they will ask you about your ability to hit targets and KPIs every month.

Question 1
You will be walked onto the shop floor, and you will be asked to try to sell a product to the interviewer on the shop floor.
first interview quite easy-going, then if successful, called back for a second interview with the manager. Asked pretty much the same questions plus some that seemed irrelevant that you can't really elaborate on
I applied online. I interviewed at Currys (Reading, England) in Oct 2024
Interview
got a call to set up an interview date, when I went in the managers were really nice and asked me scenario based questions. after 15 minutes they told me to choose a product and create a scenario for a family friend that might need it and why I chose that specific product for their issue. they took a copy of my passport and national insurance number.
