Entrevista
First of were a few simple tests online to see if you're a match for the store. If you pass these tests you'll receive a phone call for a quick interview, but it was more like an informal chat.
I was then invited to a 'team assessment', where you are taken onto the shop floor and told to talk to literally every customer you see whilst being supervised by a manager. My team consisted of 4, but we were taken onto different sections of the store so were doing the tasks alone. I am used to interacting with customers due to previous interviews with similar tasks, so was surprised when my manager said that I had hardly spoken to anyone when I approached everyone in the store.
I was then taken out to be told I was unsuccessful due to not approaching enough people, despite the store being extremely quiet. I was given a £10 note and £10 next gift card.
The overall manager was lovely but the manager that was meant to be supervising me did not pay attention to me, therefore gave the overall manager the wrong information. I understand that she may have been busy being approached by other customers and watching over the other candidate, but she did not supervise me at all like she was supposed to.
If you don't like being thrown into the deep end in an interview, then do not apply for next and waste your time.

Video Interview (JUST COMPLETED - NO OFFER YET): Very short and relaxed, only lasted about 10-15 mins. Felt very at ease with the Manager/Interviewer - lovely, warm and chatty. Went through tick list questions first (Right to Work, Age etc). Asked very basic and easy questions to answer for those who have work experience, especially within retail. After questions, details about steps going forward were given to me in a very well explained manner :)
Tips:
Get on that call at LEAST 5 mins early!! This proves to them that you are punctual and on-time.
When they ask if you have a question, ASK THEM ONE!! this shows that you are interested in the job which makes you stand out.

Professional yet warm and calm. Manager was nice and wanted to get to know me as a person. Sounds like it would be a lovely job and location to work at.
I had a really positive experience with the interview process at Next. The interviewer was friendly and welcoming, asked clear questions about customer service and teamwork, and made me feel comfortable throughout.
