I went to one of these interviews, it was a group exercise, went through some videos and as a group you had to make an advert for a specific product. Was all very relaxed and most people dressed smart casual. That's as far as I went as they changed the goal posts, decided they only wanted part time staff as they had filled all the full time hours. Good luck with it though :beer:

I went for an interview in M&S 7 years ago. It was for part time temporary xmas hours. I was there half the day - they had me watch videos, tell them my lifes history, answer questions in front of 4 interviewers and then go down on to the shop floor and stop real customers (in the middle of their shopping) and tell them that I had applied for a job with M&S and would they mind answering a short questionaire!!

In the end I was over qualified!!
