Question 1
when have you worked as part of a multicultural team
I applied online. I interviewed at Tesco (Braintree, England) in Oct 2018
Interview
After successfully completing the online application, I was called in for an interview. This was a group interview, which is never pleasant for me, fortunately there was only one other applicant turn up. Unfortunately she had a lot more experience than me. I was surprised to be asked back a few days later for an individual interview. This went well and I was asked to come back a third time for a work sample on the tills and stocktaking. This I duly did; they left me on the till for an hour and half on a Saturday afternoon! I was then told there was no time for the stock work sample and asked me come back a fourth time. [I had already been told I had passed the till one] So I went back a fourth time and spent an hour stock taking. I then received an email saying I had not got the job but please apply again for other positions!
